ECG Quiz: Flushing, Paresthesias, and Difficulty Swallowing After a Run.
A 45-year-old veteran runner, while on a summer vacation in Martha's Vineyard, went for his usual 5-mile jog in 80 degrees F weather. Two minutes after completing the run, his vision blurred and he became lightheaded. He had difficulty swallowing and noted tingling in his hands and arms and generalized flushing. He felt no chest pain, but his facial and arm muscles felt "distorted."
