Nausea, lightheadness and SVT?
Hello,
I've been feeling quite awful for the past week now due to a number of issues.
First i'll mention my stomach acid, which is causing intense nausea and making me want to throw up whatever i eat but i'm not puking, instead i have intense diarrhea.
I've been feeling that way since last friday when I decided to drink a lot of alcohol (and mix drinks I shouldn't be mixing). I ended up puking that night and felt this acid-y feeling in my stomach since then and felt the symptoms this weekend.
On monday, I still felt the acid feeling but I thought it was normal. I also felt light headed and ended up passing out. I had an SVT attack which I haven't had since I was 10 (I'm 20 now) and ended up in the ER where they found out i have an abnormal heart beat, but it's nothing dangerous or to be worried about. They sent me home but i still felt the lightheadedness and nausea.
The next day (Tuesday) i stayed in bed and took so many naps because I constantly felt drained.
Wednesday (Yesterday) I decided to go back to the ER because my symptoms were awful and it was affecting my everyday life. i spent most of the day sleeping (AGAIN) and it was freaking me out. They did all this blood work, checked my heart and all of that because i told them about my SVT attack. They concluded i'm perfectly healthy and that my heart isn't dangerous or an issue. Which i already knew.
They told me I should stay hydrated for my lightheadedness and absolutely nothing else. No medication, nothing.
I went to the clinic today, and the doctor gave me something for my stomach acid but nothing for the lightheadedness or diarrhea.
So much has happened that i'm overwhelmed and I dont know what to do. I had an awful chest infection 2 weeks ago and I took antiboitics for it, but i still feel mucus in my chest sometimes so I dont know if these are linked to me MAYBE having a chest infection but the doctor listened to my breathing at the clinic and said my chest was clear.....?
I don't get it. If i'm so "healthy" why do i feel so drained and so sick? why do i have all these symptoms? What do i do?
