What causes profuse perspiration, nausea, and tremors?

Question

Hello doctor,

I experienced an episode of profuse perspiration, accompanied by nausea and mild leg tremors, which occurred this morning. An ECG conducted within an hour was normal, and cholesterol levels were also within normal range. Please advise on the further course of action. Additional tests performed included a lipid profile, kidney function test (KFT), liver function test (LFT), and iron profile.

Please advise.

Answer 1

Hello,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

Are you diabetic? If yes, these symptoms could be explained by low blood sugar. Otherwise, they may resemble a panic attack or anxiety.

I hope this helps you.

Thank you.

Answer 2

Hello,

How are you feeling now? If these episodes are intermittent, they could be due to a vasovagal response or a panic attack. Additional tests that may be required include thyroid function tests and an echocardiogram to rule out any cardiac dysfunction.

I hope this helps you.

Thank you.

Hello,

If your pulse is slow, please avoid taking Metoprolol, especially if your pulse is below 60 beats per minute. Also, thank you for sharing your hemoglobin level; 9 g/dL is quite low. It seems that anemia may be the cause of your weakness. You can proceed with your doctor’s recommendations.

I hope this helps you.

Thank you.
