Breathless after hot bath

[Gail1296]

My husband feels breathless and gets sweaty after a hot bath especially in the morning but won't believe me it's the temperature of the water that's the problem

I had the same.AF would kick in and I'd become breathless with a fast heartrate after a hot bath.Doctor said totally down to having the water to hot.

This is what I thought. Thank you

You're right - water hot or cold changes the blood pressure which causes heart rate to increase. If in a spa it always says people with heart conditions should not use the hot tubs etc.

Stop bathing and shower. Cheaper too!
