Why Child Is Having Several Bouts Of Dizziness And Shakiness With High Pulse?

My 13 yr old boy has had several bouts of dizziness and shakiness in past two weeks. His pulse was 106 when I checked it. He had eaten 30 minutes prior (chicken flautas, more carb than protein). He says he drank water from the water fountain at school, but has not been more thirsty than normal. It is not hot today.

I recall my brother got dizzy and nearly passed out at the same age.

Hi,



These are not normal in a teen aged boy.



Take him to the doctor and get examined .



He may need some blood tests including blood sugar.


Good luck
