What types of things would cause extreme heat intolerance in my 4 yr old?she gets hot very easy & fast.stumbles & blacks out.wat tests should be done?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hypoglycemia: Paradoxically this sudden lowering of blood sugar is caused by inordinate consumption of sugar. The best test would be a glucose tolerance. I would expect this to be "flat" or distorted. Remedy is to stop all forms of sugar and give her a b vitamin and magnesium supplment + a good multivitamin.
