Suggest Remedy For Fainting Spells And Cold Sweats
I m having fainting spells were I get so dizzy I nearly fall over, cold sweats and crazy rapid heart rate. It s happened quite a few times lately and I ve also lost 15-20 lbs this month without changing my diet. (Full of calories, fat, ect.) it s very concerning to me and not sure what it could be, going to see the doctor for me cost me in the ballpark of 160, which I don t have....so I ask u, what could this be. Thank you for your time.

hello ,
welcome to healthcare
what i could infer is that either you are suffering from low blood pressure or hypoglycemia. but since you are not on a compromised diet, this all can be due to hormonal imbalance.
i would like you to suggest you to get sugar and b.p checked, if normal visit an endocrinologist
all this is after considering that u are not having any ear problem like noise fulness hearing loss etc
