Profuse sweating, blurred vision, dizziness???


Last night, my boyfriend suddenly looked at me and told me he wasn't feeling well. By the time I got him to a chair he could barely stand up, and he was sweating profusely. The episode lasted about 25-30 minutes. At first he was sweating so bad that the sweat was literally dripping off of him. He was very dizzy and he couldn't keep his head up. After sitting with his head in his lap for a while he started to feel better. Afterwards he felt very weak and his skin felt very cool to the touch. I had to cover him up in a thick blanket to keep him warm. He described his symptoms as blurred vision, dizziness, sweating, and a dull headache. This happened once before a few years ago when we were at a movie. It was the same thing and it lasted about the same amount of time. Do these symptoms sound familiar to anyone? Is it high blood pressure? Galbladder problems? Low blood sugar? Any suggestions would help!

Go get his blood sugar checked the blurred vision,dizziness and headache could be related to diabetes, it could also be high blood pressure either way Do Not Delay going to the Dr.
Both of these conditions are life threatening.

i would guess it to be diabetic ,or high blood presure or heart.
either way he should go to the doctor asap

I know I had a family member with those symptoms and it turned out to be high blood pressure. The doctor said his blood pressure was dangerously high and could of caused a stroke. Get to the doctor.

There are so many possibilities. It could be high blood pressure, or some type of brain abnormality. Make sure he contacts a dr asap, so it doesn't happen again.

The same thing actually just happened to me in class today, and I had to get up and leave..

Its happened to me at least 3 times this year, and I haven't really known what to do about it, but Im finally going to go see a doctor..

My moms a hypoglycemic, and has told me that these symptoms are sometimes what she goes through, so I'd say just go see a doctor and figure out whats up.

gull bladder most likely not when i had that problem i was in AWFUL pain wanted to die,sounds like a sugar problem to me, high blood pressure, has many symptoms, that you wouldnt think blood pressure, but he should go see a doc and if it happens again take him right away to ER they will find problem better when hes having an attack

The best thing to do would be to go to the doctor. It could be anything. Only the doctor can tell you what it is and take him right away.

Wow...do you not have health care???? I would have went straight to the hospital the first time....Sounds like he is a diabetic....
