Patient Question

Hello Doctor,

 

I’ve been having frequent side pain, shortness of breath with minimal movement, sharp chest pain, dizziness, numbness in my legs, and occasional nausea. I haven’t taken any medication yet and I’m worried about what’s causing this. What should I do next?

 

Hello,

Thank you for reaching out to Dr. Galen. Please find the below response to your query.

 

You should see your primary care physician for a full evaluation. Given your symptoms, a cardiac check-up may be needed, and if no issues are found, a neurologist referral could help rule out other causes. If symptoms worsen, seek urgent medical care.

 

Thanks
