Dizziness, Lightheadedness, Chest Tightness, Blotchy Feeling, Upset Stomach. What Could It Be?
I am a 40 year old woman. I am currently on my menstrual cycle. Earlier today I felt very dizzy and was lightheaded. I felt like I was going to pass out. The room was spinning then my chest got very blotchy a I felt hot. I had to Lay down. I felt nauseous and lost my appetite. What could it be? My stomach has felt upset since this happened.

Hi there ~
I understand your concerns. Dizziness lightheadedness chest tightness blotchy feeling and upset stomach might be heralding symptoms of cardiac ischemia and that you might be having these symptoms due to that reason. A cardiac profile should give you results regarding your heart's condition. I also think that you might have gastritis. H pylori testing and also an upper GI endoscopy will tell you if you really have a gastritis or an even worse condition.
I hope this helped and I wish you the very best. Take care!
