I am feeling dizzy and extremely hot. What to do?

Hi,

Welcome to icliniq.com.

I think the main thing to consider is whether this is something significant related to any cardiac or circulatory problems or whether this is something relatively minor. I would certainly suggest you visit your GP or family doctor. You will need to undergo an ECG (electrocardiogram) of your heart to determine its underlying rhythm. You will need your blood pressure and heart rate checkup, along with your blood sugar level. Given that it has happened recurrently now, your doctor may want to send off some blood tests such as your blood count to check your hemoglobin level to make sure you are not anemic, along with your electrolyte levels to ensure that there are no endocrine abnormalities. Your doctor may ask you questions to ascertain whether you have any other symptoms of thyroid dysfunction and may organize thyroid function blood tests. At this stage, I think these tests would be the minimum that you would require. Depending on the results or also whether in the meantime, you get any further similar episodes, your doctor will need to consider further additional tests or a referral to the cardiology or medical outpatient department. Just to reassure you, these symptoms are very common and the majority of cases are usually pretty minor. However, I would suggest getting checked out to be on the safer side. Thank you and take care. Regards.
