A myriad of possibilities. You have to be a little bit more specific and tell me a little about her past medical history. The tingling in the arm is most likely nerve-related. The dizziness is very non-specific. Whether or not this could be a sign of coronary artery disease depends on her risk factors. Some women present atypically. If she is very concern she should seek medical attention.
