What Causes Sudden Excessive Sweating And Shaking In Body?

Last night I broke out in a sweat and got shaky then I felt like I was getting the flu so I went to bed at 7pm. I don't think I have the flu but I just ate two cookies and i got sweaty again. I'm not feeling myself at all. I am 47 on hormones with a long history of family heart disease.

Thanks for your question on Health Care Magic.
I can understand your concern.
In my opinion, possibility of hormonal imbalance is more in your case but better to first rule out heart diseases.
So get done ecg and 2d echo first.
If both are normal then no need to worry for heart diseases.
You are in menopausal age and taking hormone.
So possibility of hormonal imbalance is more.
This can cause similar symptoms.
So get done hormone levels (FSH, LH, Estrogen, Progesterone etc).
Don't worry, you will be alright.
Better to first rule out heart diseases.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
