Hello,
Thanks for the query to H.C.M. Forum.
However there is no any scientifically proved reports about phen phen ( fen, fen) for weight loss.
As you stated that almost 9 years passed since, you stopped the phen phen.
Now you are having dizziness, chest cramps, restlessness, palpitation , all these symptoms may be due to tension or stress ( you yourself mentioned in your query).
So consult a psychiatrist and get his opinion.
Good luck.
