Suggest Treatment For Sudden Nausea, Drenching Sweat And Dizziness
After I woke up this morning and took a shower got dressed. I went and got my coffee and went outside to have a cigarette and my head, arms and face went completely numb and I felt like throwing up. Then I was dizzy and had to lay down and broke out all over my body in a drenching sweat. My heart was racing and I felt nausea for about 8 minutes. I am starting to feel that again this afternoon.
As per your query you have sudden nausea, drenching sweat and dizziness . Well there can be many reasons for symptoms you mention in query like benign paroxysmal positional vertigo, inflammation within the inner ear sometimes due to infection, side effects of certain medications and heart condition, meniere's disease , sinusitis and migraines . Sometimes condition like stroke also give such symptoms . For now take steam thrice a day ,avoid bending forward, take proper rest and drink green tea with ginger thrice a day. I would suggest you to consult ENT specialist for proper examination . Doctor may order test like rotatory chair test , posturography , blood test and CT scan . Doctor may prescribe antibiotics along with antiemetic drug , decongestant and expectorant . Doctor may refer you to cardiologist for stroke like condition .
Hope your concern has been resolved.
