Suggest Treatment For Sweating And Tingling All Over My Body
I have had two bouts of unusual symptoms in past 24 hours that include: tingling all over my body, sweating and feeling as if Im going to faint. I am a 69 year old female; I am 5'7"tall and weigh about 140 lbs. I have a history of osteoarthritis which is successfully treated with glucosamine/chondroiton. I don't take any prescription drugs, my total cholesterol is about 195 and my resting blood pressure is 110 over 70, pulse about 65. I exercise regularly about five hours a week. Do these symptoms point to any specific medical problems?

Welcome to hcm, The tingling sensation feeling of giddiness are most probably due to hypoglycemialow blood sugar or due to vertigo. Kindly see your blood sugar levels at the time of giddinses. Have adequate timely meals . If you have low sugar levels have sweat items at once. If your blood sugar is normal and then too if you feel giddiness consult your physician . he will have complete physical examination and investigation to know the reason for it. Hope this explains
