Is It Normal To Have Dizziness And Nausea When Diagnosed With Pericarditis?
I have pericarditis and had no pain for the last few months (was diagnosed in aug 2103). Recently the pain and discomfort have started up again. Throw in some dizzy spells and a dash of nausea and you will know what I am feeling. Is this normal? Does it mean that this is chronic and not acute?

Dear friend,
Welcome to Health Care Magic
The issues are unlikely to be related
Nausea could be from dizziness…
Dizziness is generally from Ear – body’s balancing mechanism is in inner ear…
Other causes like arrhythmia and so on may need evaluation..
See an Internist / get yourself examined / at times, basic investigation may be necessary...
Take care
Wishing all well
God bless
