What Causes Heaviness In Chest And Head?

I woke up extremely heavy chested with faintness this morning. Also have been clammy. And I have had a headache for the past 3 days..both my chest and my head feel like a 500 pound person is sitting on my head. I just moved to Colorado about 3 months ago. What's going on?

Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Sudden onset chest Heaviness, headache, fainting etc in morning are most commonly seen with hypertension and heart diseases.
So immediately consult Cardiologist and get done blood pressure monitoring, ecg, 2d echo and stress test (trade mill test).
You may need antihypertensive drug and other cardiac supportive drugs on the basis of reports.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further . Wish you good health. Thanks.
