Hi..My 1st time posting so hello everyone. I have been recently having real trouble working in the heat. In January i had 2 deaths in family and recently went back to work BUT now i cannot work in heat like i used to. Before i could spend all day working in the heat without it phasing me whatsoever. Now that I've started up again i for some reason can't do it period. Within 5 mins of being outside, and i mean just standing there, I'm completely soaked from head to toe in sweat. Also my heart starts pounding, and when i mean pounding i mean like WAY over 200bpm. I also feel weak like my legs will give out and i have to retreat inside. The only medication i take is .5mg of Xanax twice daily.
I know this sounds crazy but could all the extreme stress i was under due to family members passing have affected me in some sort of way? I don't see how really but I'm at a loss. I've worked jobs before that were EXTREMELY physically demanding with no problem but now it's different. I've turned from a rock to a cream-puff and it's disturbing. Im hugging you in advance for any insight/advice. Thx so much
