<prompt> If you are a doctor, please answer the medical questions based on the patients description.Hi, may I answer your health queries right now ? Please type your query here...About 5 months ago my husband started having night sweats off and on. now about two weeks ago he was in a wrestling match with our son goofing around in the yardand when it was over he could not catch his breath. in this past week he has new symptons. sweating, shortness of breath, bloated, diarrhea, and blurred vision when he gets these attacks. It does not have to be physical activity to bring this on. It happend one morning after he got out of the shower. Also one day driving home from a fishing trip. He is not worring about anything that he is aware of. Any ideas of what this could be, or could something be bringing on a panic attack. Thanks for your help and answer. He is 49 years old. weight 206 height 5 10 . no medical problems.  <response>: Hello! Welcome and thank you for asking on Chat Doctor! I passed carefully through your question and would explain that his symptoms could be related to different possible causes: - a chronic infection or inflammation- anxiety - a thyroid dysfunction. For this reason, I would recommend consulting with his attending physician and performing some tests to investigate for the possible causes: -a chest X-ray study-a resting ECG-thyroid hormone levels-complete blood count- PCR, ESR for inflammation- fasting glucose for diabetes-kidney and liver function tests-blood electrolytes. You should discuss with his doctor on the above issues. Meanwhile, I would recommend you to measure his blood pressure, heart rate and body temperature during those episodes. Hope you will find this answer helpful! Wishing good health,
