I'm not sure what is going on

I don't know if I have this under the right thread or not but here goes
the past few weeks I've been weak and dizzy..I've had a burning feeling in my chest and every once in awhile have a pain shoot down the right side of my neck..I'm not sleeping at night because I've got tingling feeling in my legs so bad that it keeps me up all hours of the night.I don't know if it's poor circulation or what..I was just wondering if anyone else has felt this way? If anyone has any information please let me know..I'm going to the dr tomorrow..there is some pain in my chest but nothing that is really painful.hope to hear from you soon thanks

Re: I'm not sure what is going on

well I'm kinda upset with this dr he is just a reg dr not a heart dr or anything..he did know blood work or any test what so ever..but he told me he was going to treat me with two kinds of meds and see if it helps..he said well heart problems don't run in your family so I wouldn't think it would be that..which it don't but my mom dad and brother has high blood pressure..my blood pressure has always ran around 98 over 58 which I always thought was low..but yesterday it was good it was 130 over 82..but he gave me some meds in the office that didn't help the pain or burning in the chest some kind of cocktail..he said he was going to put me on protonix which is for hiatal hernias..which I don't know why he put me on that I don't think I have that..and for the circulation something called cyclobenzaprine.the protonix didn't help at all unless it has to get into my system..and the cyclobenzaprine made me so sleepy that I couldn't tell if the circulation was better or not anyway just wanted to give an update

Re: I'm not sure what is going on

I'll be 35 in may I'm female and I'm really short 4 11' and weigh about 100 pounds and he acted like because I was so young that I shouldn't be having these problems.because I was so young and it doesn't run in the family he ruled out anything to do with the heart..it would have made me feel better if he ran blood work or sent me for xray or something.but nothing.how can a dr just give you meds with out knowing for sure what is going on with a persons body??..I guess I need to think positive about this and just see if this meds works

Re: I'm not sure what is going on

Hi, the Cyclobenazprine would make you sleepy, it's a muscle relaxer...also known as Flexoril. I don't understand why he would put you on this medicine unless he thinks you are spasming or have a sciatic nerve problem. If you had a problem with your sciatic nerve, you would have pain just below the backside of your hip and the pain usually runs down one leg. The Protonix is for acid reflux disease, are you having belching with burning in your asophogis? If you have answered no to any of these, I would seek a second opinion.
