What Causes Sudden Heaviness In Chest, Muscle Cramps And Nausea?

I am at work and had two indecencies in the last hour. Sitting at my desk typing and the back of my arms from my shoulders down to my hands cramped real bad and my chest tightened up and I got real flushed and nauseous and almost passed out. I put my arms above my head real fast so I could breathe and it went away after a couple of minutes. I have never remotely had this happen before.

hello
You may consult a nearby doctor immediately or visit ER. A thorough check up for pulse, BP, EKG and heart enzymes and other investigations must be done to rule out heart, lung problem and blood pressure issues
Take tylenol or aspirin dispersible tablet and do hot fomentation to cramped muscles, light massage with muscle relaxant gels also till you see a doctor in ER
