What Causes Dizziness Along With Profuse Sweating?

I have had some dizziness in the last few months, sweat too easily when doing light chores and get really dizzy when I bend over. Have had some light chest pains also. I am on Lisinopril, Simvastatin, Sertraline and Propranolol. Have a DR s appointment on Wednesday to get checked out. and a Colonoscopy on the 8th of August. Ideas?

Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
In my opinion, we should definitely rule out cardiac diseases in your case.
Your symptoms, dizziness, sweating, chest pain are more suggestive of coronary artery disease (CAD).
You are also taking antihypertensive (lisinopril) and dyslipidemia (simvastatin) drugs. So you are at risk of heart diseases.
So get done blood pressure monitoring, ecg, 2d echo and stress test (trade mill test).
You may need coronary angiography if stress test is positive.
Strict control of blood pressure is also required.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
