I ve been having waves of lightheadedness and an increase in blood pressure. It gives me shallow breathing and a rapid heartbeat. I m only 22. It s been happening for two days. I had some iron deficiencies when I was pregnant two years ago. Do these symptoms sound like anemia?
Welcome to health care magic. My dear friend I shall like to tell you that waves of lightheadedness, rapid heart beat rapid breathing and increase blood pressure is common in anemia. As you told you had iron deficiency anemia during your pregnancy, i shall suggest you to approach the nearest physician for complete blood count and peripheral blood film for anemia. I also suggest you for serum thyroid profile which is also associated with increase blood pressure and rapid heart beat. Thanx for query.
