Could these symptoms all be related to Fibromyalgia, which I was diagnosed with in Spring of 98.
It all starts out if I get over heated, whether it be in the shower, or standing and cooking in front of a hot stove, or if I'm shopping in a hot store and get over heated. Then in the pit of my stomach I begin to feel nauseous. This is followed by an intense feeling that I'm going to faint. I have to lie down, or I'm pretty sure I would. Then I break out with a sweat all over my body whic is followed by a shaky feeling inside. It's not visible shaking, just feels that way inside my body. While lying down, all these feelings seem to wash over me like waves, until it finally passes. It lasts about 10 - 15 minutes. Years ago, I would get this way in the morning when I was standing, getting ready to go to work. At the time, I was being treated for Irritible Bowel. Years passed w/o these symptoms, then maybe about 2 - 3 years ago, they began again, first while in the shower. Of course, now I take cooler showers and I tend to be okay, but now it seems whenever I get over heated, it comes on. There have been times it was so bad, I had to get out of the shower, soaking wet to go lie on my bed.
Thanks so much for any advice or help.

Along with the Fibromyalgia, I also have high blood pressure, which is being treated, high cholesterol, take Lipitor and I have GERD which I take meds for. I have arthritis as well.
