Hello!
Welcome on Healthcaremagic!
Your symptoms could be related to low blood pressure or orthostatic hypotension. Have you measured your blood pressure values?
I would recommend you to closely monitor your blood pressure values and perform some tests:
- complete blood count for anemia
- blood electrolytes
- fasting glucose
- thyroid hormone levels.
If all the above tests result normal, you should consider anxiety as the main cause of your complaints.
Kind regards, Dr. Aida
