Hello friend,
Thank you for posting your query through Healthcare magic.
Your feeling dizzy and light headed last night was due to syncope. It simply means faintness. This is caused by lack of blood supply to brain for some time and it got compromised when you took a lying position.
But the numbness in your arms and legs during the attack and the slight numbness that remained in your arm when you woke up in the morning show that you had little more than mere transient hypovolaemia of brain.
It is better that you consult a Neurologist who can examine your brain and see whether you had any mild embolism, thrombus or microhaemorrhage in brain which caused the symptoms last night.
Also you have to approach a heart specialist to get the ECG, Echocardiography, Treadmill stress test etc to ensure the normal functioning of your heart. This is because you have shortness of breath, pressure in chest etc.
Since you have random bruises in the lower limbs, you need to test your bleeding time, clotting time etc to rule out certain blood abnormalities, that bay be behind the frequent bruises.
My answer should not put you in a panicky state. After getting all relevant investigation, you should approach an expert Homoeopathic physician who alone can cure your constitutional problems and can ensure better health for you in future.
Please avoid any chemo drug that is said to take care of your brain, heart, blood, blood pressure, blood vessels etc. This method of approaching your disease as piece meal by different specialists is not going to help you in long run.
You manifest these symptoms at this young age of 30 is because you are genetically sick and therefore you need a genetic constitutional method of treatment. That means you need a treatment method that will take care of you as a single constitutional totality. I can very confidently recommend Homoeopathic treatment for you. Homoeopathy only considers you as a person, your life situations, your genetic physical and mental reactions etc. during treatment.
I can also help you provided you contact me through a premium question of Healthcare magic and give your full details. I will assist you to prepare your case by sending to you a case recording format on request in which you can develop your case and forward it to me. I will plan your treatment.
With Best Wishes,
