General & Family Physician,  's  Response
Hi.

Thank you for writing to HCM.

The symptoms you have mentioned may be seen in serotonin syndrome. This can cause
confusion
agitation
dilated pupils
headaches
diarrhea and
high heart rate

It would be a good idea to get the serotonin levels checked out and to see a doctor for this. The doctor would be able to diagnose this and suggest the best treatment.

I hope this helps. All the best.
