Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hello, my name is Miranda and I am 13 and I have had really bad chest pains all day and I had them last night along with a head ache, also I get light headed when I stand up, also I am very weak. Last night they started and it got to where I couldn t hardly breathe. When I stood up I got light headed. And weak. Today while making a bed it happen again all at once. Should I be worried with me only being 13?? Should I go to the emergency room?? What should I do???

Hi It's better to get evaluated. Please get an ECG and cardiac evaluation done. Maintain good hydration. Sometimes electrolyte imbalance,low haemoglobin levels,altered sugar , nutritional deficiency also can cause these symptoms. Kindly evaluate with your treating doctor. All the best. Take care.
