Is sweating and anxiety common after an angioplasty?
We are glad everything went well with your fathers angioplasty procedure. Anxiety after any type of heart procedure can be common but sweating after angioplasty is not typical. You state that your dad is also diabetic sweating can sometimes be a sign of blood sugar problems or even some other problem like a thyroid or hormone imbalance. Check his heart rate, blood pressure and blood sugar when he has one of these sweating episodes. Also pay attention to when they occur - in the morning, evening, before or after he eats? We would recommend you discuss this again with his cardiologist but also his general medical provider to make sure somthing else is not causing the sweating. Also sometimes sweating is a side effect of certain medications.
I am really worried for him and my family please answer as soon as possible.
