heat

Avatar f tn t the heat itself but maybe the anxiety or worry of another heat stroke?? We have avoided going to the doctor for the simple fact if it's something simple we don't need a several thousand dollar hospital bill. He is always trying to work but can't do that due to this new issue that has came about around this year with the heat. Mind you though he has always thrown up before doing anything high stress or like starting a new job or even when I moved in with him for the first Time.
Avatar m tn Truly, there are no doctors on this site. The fact you didn't pass out means it was probably not heat stroke, as you'd have likely ended up in the hospital when some passerby found you lying face down. The continued feeling of skipped beats could be skipped beats or just feeling like you're having skipped beats. But only a doctor's exam will tell you if something happened.
Avatar n tn I have heard that once a person has had a heat stroke, they can not tolerate the heat anymore. It seems to do something to our body's chemistry. I have not had a heat stroke, but, I am extremely heat intolerant. I am always hot, and I must be in the A/C or I get short of breath, PVC's and feel horrible. I am even hot in the winter. One thing besides heat stroke that can cause heat intolerance is an over-active thyroid and also a lack of natural progesterone.
Avatar f tn Yes lots of water and eat what you can I was in the heat the other day and I fainted
Avatar m tn My husband suffered heat exhaustion a few days ago. He ran a fever of 101 all night w/ sweating off and on. Thinking he would be in the a/c he went back to work the next day and had to be outside to fix a part on the equipment he was running which set him off to a severe headache, he quit sweating, dry and hot, his muscles were starting to cramp and he said he felt like he could vomit, but never did. He had all the symptoms of a stroke, but didn't lose consciousness.
Avatar m tn s actually someone like a real stroke but heat stroke or heat exhaustion affects the brain in a different way and the ongoing symptoms are related to the body's reaction to heat or sun. Not everyone experiences ongoing sensitivity, and yours may ease off. But in my case, it was permanent. I remember those two incidents very well to this day, man I was sick (unbelievable). So in a way I am not surprised.
Avatar n tn These headaches could be primary like migraines, cluster or tension headaches depending on the characteristic of the headaches you are having. The onset post stroke could be incidental. These headaches could be due to stress, anxiety, migraines or tension headaches, sinus headaches radiating to the ear, headache usually front of head, on one or both the sides of temples along with nausea, vomiting, irritability, low blood pressure, sensitivity to lights, sound, etc.
Avatar f tn Its fine to go swimming, however I highly doubt you had heat stroke. Heat stroke is a medical emergency and you would need to be hospitalized. What you are probably referring to is heat exhaustion.
Avatar f tn Dehydration can cause nausea and lead to a vicious cycle where the dehydration and heat do lead to heat exhaustion because the nausea prevents the intake of fluids which just adds to the dehydration and leads to the body getting hotter and hotter.
Avatar f tn The other neurological disorder that makes symptoms worsen with heat is Mitochondrial disease. Heat plays havoc with the symptoms to the point of having heat stroke. I have to live in the air-conditioning during the summer time, which is why I love the winter so much.
Avatar f tn I know first hand about the heat.three years ago I wound up in the ER due to the heat. The nurse said folks with respiratory illnesses had been coming in all day, Our temp was 102, This current heat wave has the temp hovering at the century mark with no relief in sight.
Avatar n tn After a couple of days in the hospital, the result was the discovery of the previously undetected stroke and a recommended rehabilitation plan to that of a stroke. The key to me is that heat exhaustion triggered this lapse or acute stage of confusion and short term memory loss. My dad is under the care of a cognitive therapist and is scheduled to meet with a neuropsychologist later in September. Did your neuropsychologist consider the stroke/heat exhaustion connection?
Avatar f tn It sounds like you are getting dehydrated and almost a heat stroke. Try to keep very hydrated and don't stay in the car long without AC. Bring water and a wet wash cloth to keep cool. You may want to get your blood electrolytes take (sodium , potassium, chloride and CO2) to see if you have a imbalance of these. You can also drink gatoraide and a banana to try to increase your potassium.
Avatar f tn I have under active thyroid and secondary hyperdydrosis and im a landscaper when i work in the heat I start to get the feelings of a heat stroke is this cause by thyroid and secondary hyperhydrosis i drink plenty of water during the day should i stay out of the sun and find a different job i have been feeling so weak and tired but i cant sleep at night what else could be causing this plaese help im so lost right now
Avatar m tn Hi there. The symptoms of dizziness or hypotension, bradycardia and shortness of breath do not make you more prone for a heat stroke. Though you may have dehydration due to heat stroke which can cause dizziness. You need a cardiac assessment for conditions like heart blocks where the heart rate is decreased causing hypotension as a result. Anemia could also be a cause for dizziness and shortness of breath on walking but there should be accompanying tachycardia in that case.
377493 tn?1356502149 I have a very fair skinned/fair haired 17 month old and want to make sure I am taking the appropriate steps to prevent heat stroke, sun stroke, etc. I know the obvious ones...sun screen, I always put a hat on him (which, to be honest, he promptly takes off..lol), always always have lots of water and continuously offer it and keep him in the shade as much as possible. He loves to be outdoors and we spend as much time as possible doing outdoor activities and playing outside.
Avatar f tn Hello, You have not mentioned your age, but in elderly females close to perimenopause, hormonal changes in the body can cause such symptoms. The other possibilities are anemia, thyroid conditions and anxiety and panic attacks. Get your hormone levels, hemoglobin levels and thyroid function tests done to rule out these conditions. It is very difficult to precisely confirm a diagnosis without examination and investigations and the answer is based on the medical information provided.
Avatar m tn As far as heat stroke is concerned, many of us with autonomic dysfunction have reduced ability to sweat and have heat intolerance. For those with this problem it is easier to get heat stroke. Drinking water, using A/C, using misters and even wearing a cooling vest have been used by some of us. Have you had a tilt table test? Have you had any heart tests? Are you anemic or have any endocrine problems?
82861 tn?1333453911 Also please dont leave your pet in the car even if the windows are cracked as the heat inside the car or truck is much higher. Many pets have passed on due to this......I know pets love to go for rides but this isnt safe during these times. The police logs are listed in our paper and they are called alot about this.
Avatar n tn she have been light headed from the heat or she had a slight case of heat stroke 9 not TO serious ). just take her to docter if it continues , and always remember those " time to come inside breaks " to get water and re apply sunscreen. Also make sure she has lots of water even i know some little kids dont like it.
4898758 tn?1373910879 usually in july in wisconsin yes we do when the temp hits 90 degrees and the heat index hits 98 or 100 degrees. we r more used to 80 degree temp for summer so any hotter is really hot!
Avatar n tn Heat exhaustion can quickly go to full-blown heat stroke which can be fatal if not treated. Hosing her down with the water hose in the heat of the day or after a walk will help. I recall my boss from several years ago who had an Italian Greyhound who nearly died of heat stroke here in Texas. They had adopted the dog in winter, and one fine day in the middle of May when temps suddenly jumped to the low 90's, they looked out the window and saw the dog just laid out in the yard.
546319 tn?1261636005 You should seek medical advice. It sounds like heat stroke + hormones, but you need to get it checked out.
Avatar f tn People tell me often that I'm glowing and I look amazing and that pregnancy suits me. I don't see a flow, I have chloasma (pregnancy mask) which is like a rash all over my face and neck, I feel like a balloon, and pregnancy su cks. But it feels good to get the compliments so I don't tell them I disagree with them. Maybe we just can't see our own glow?
