Hi friend,
Welcome to Health Care Magic
Disorder of rhythm or low output may be responsible for the dizziness.
Chest pain may be from Coronary Artery Disease..
EKG / HOLTER (24 to 48 hour ambulatory monitoring) / ECHOcardiogram / TMT (Treadmill exercise ECG) / LABORATORY work-up – may all be necessary for further assessment and assistance.
The treating doctor may suggest them depending on need, based on his assessment of the situation.
Take care
Wishing speedy recovery
God bless
Good luck
