Hello,
Thanks for the query to H.C.M. Forum.
I would come up with these possibilities for this left side pain , these includes.
1 Angina pectoris ,diagnosis can be confirmed by E K G and physical as well as clinical examination by a physician .
2 Hyper tension may be the next reason.Diagnosis can be confirmed by physical examination at the time of incident.Usually a patient with high blood pressure feels dizziness with fullness in chest ( pain). However reason of high blood pressure may be many.
3 Arrythymia , diagnosis can be confirmed by E K G .
In my opinion irregular heart beat with dizziness and pain in the jaw is concerning.
I would advise you consult a cardiologist and sort out this problem as early as possible.
Good luck. Dr. HET.
