Cold Sweat & Rapid Pulse

Last night my husband, male, age 40, 6'2", approx 300 lbs. experienced a
rapid pulse and a very cold sweat. Earlier in the afternoon he had consumed
approx. 6-7 cans of beer, after two hours he consumed another. His pulse
started racing and he broke out in a cold sweat. During that 2 hour period
he was standing watching a baseball game. The temperature was not hot. He
layed down and after about 1/2 hour his pulse returned to normal. I can't
tell you his exact pulse count be he said his chest was pounding abnormally.
Can you offer me any advice that might convince him to see his physician?
Your assistance is greatly appreciated!
