[|Human|] i had a scary incident last night. hot/cold with extreme sweats. heart palpitations. very fast pulse. labored, shallow breathing. fainted. could understand what my husband was saying but unable to respond. thought a warm bath would help but water felt both scalding and freezing at same time. kept collapsing. finally got into bed and soaked clothing 4 times during night. this has happened to me several times before and i have been to the er. each time the doctors said they didn t know what it was and sent me home. i really felt as if i were dying. my husband was sure i stopped breathing at one point.
[|AI|]  Hello! Welcome and thank you for asking on Chat Doctor! Regarding your concern, I would explain that your symptoms could be related to a metabolic disorder or an infection. For this reason, I would recommend consulting with your attending physician for a careful physical exam and some tests to investigate for the possible causes: - a chest X-ray study- a resting ECG and cardiac ultrasound- a urine analysis-complete blood count, PCR, ESR for inflammation- kidney and liver function tests-fasting glucose-thyroid hormone levels-cortisol plasma levels. Further tests may be needed. Meanwhile, I would recommend you to closely monitor your body temperature and your blood pressure values during those episodes. Hope you will find this answer helpful! Kind regards,
