Welcome and thank you for asking on HealthcareMagic!
Regarding your concern, I would explain that your symptoms could be related to different possible causes: high blood pressure, an allergic reaction, thyroid dysfunction or dehydration.
What are your blood pressure values?
I recommend you to monitor your blood pressure values.
Taking plenty of water can help, especially if your blood pressure values are low.
If this situation persists, I would recommend going to the ER for a physical exam and some tests:
- a chest X ray study

- blood electrolytes

- thyroid hormone levels.
