Hi
Thanks for your query.
Based on your query, my opinion is
1. Dizziness, faintinig is usually caused by hypoglycemia or anemia.
2. Hypoglycemia means drop in the blood glucose levels to below normal levels. Get your blood sugar level checked.
3. Anemia needs to be ruled out. Get a Hemoglobin level checked along with red cell indices.
4. Transient ischemic attacks can be causing you these problems. This needs to be evaluated.
Get your Blood pressure checked to rule out hypertension.
5. Also get a lipid profile done to know your cholesterol levels.
6. Chest pain can be due to angina or gastritis, so ECG is needed.
Hope this helps.
Regards
