What Causes Dizziness, Focusing Difficulty And Chest Tightening?

Hi For the past few weeks I have been having heavy head symptoms with the feeling of dizzyness about to come on but never does. I have had some eye twitching and the feeling of difficulty focusing but I have been able to focus. At night I have issues going to sleep I keep feeling int waves of chest tightening and head rushing is the only way I can explain it should I see my GP. I have tested myself for BPPV and this was negative.

Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
Yes, you should definitely consult your doctor.
Possibility of stress and anxiety related symptoms is more.
But we should first rule out heart diseases in your case because they show similar kind of symptoms.
So consult your doctor and get done blood pressure monitoring, ecg and 2d echo.
If all these are normal then no need to worry for heart diseases.
Stress and anxiety appear more in your case.
So consult psychiatrist and get done counselling sessions. Try to identify stressor in your life and start working on it's solution.
You might need anxiolytic drugs too.
Don't worry, you will be alright. Avoid stress and tension, be relax and calm.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
