What Causes Profuse Sweating, Fainting, And Multiple Bowel Movements?

My 18 year old has had issues with having profuse sweating and feeling faint with bowel movements twice in the past couple of months. The last time she actually passed out for a couple of seconds. She also has aspergers - any idea what could be happening? It happened about 4 years ago, where she lost contiousness. We took her to the ER because of this, her color was grayish, and having trouble walking. A CT was done with a negative result.

Hi Dear ,

Welcome to HCM,

Understanding your concern .As per your query you have cramps in the bowels along with profuse sweating? . Well there can be many reasons for symptome you mention in query like diabetic hypoglycemia , endocarditis , generalized anxiety disorder , heart attack , hyperthyroidism , medication side effects, such as blockers and antidepressants . You should also consult endocrinologist for hormonal changes .It seems to me that in your case the symptoms are due to cardiac problem as you are also retaining water in legs . I would suggest you to consult cardiologist for proper examination without any delay . Doctor may order complete blood profile , ECG , TMT , angiography and check vitals . Doctor may prescribe betablockers , aspirin , diurectics like frusamide and sedatives . Doctor may also refer you to gastroenterologist for cardiac problem .

Hope your concern has been resolved.

Get Well Soon.
Best Wishes,
Dr. Harry Maheshwari
