Well as most know, it's about a billion degrees out and all day I've felt awful. My heart is racing, I've thrown up, I almost passed out, and I am SUPER dizzy and shaky. I have been under a lot of stress lately so I am uncertain if this is just a stupid panic attack that has gone all day or if it's something worse, like heat stroke (although I am in AC and been trying to drink lots of water). I also have a couple other health problems (Celiac Disease and Ulcerative Colitis). TIA

I would encourage you to call your clinic or urgent care/ER if you are having these symptoms in this weather as you are right you may be dehydrated. I would guess your on medications which could factor in with the heat spell your having.

It could be anxiety but do make the call to see what your Dr. suggests you should do. Also pedialyte and Gator Ade are good to have on hand when the weather is so hot.

Let us know how you are doing as we care.

Kindly,

Kitt
