Dizziness, Lightheaded, Weakness, Faster Heartbeat. Could This Be Due To Stress?

Hi im 21 years old; a mother of one. My hearts been beating fast and ill b sitting down, i get up, and i can barely stand. Ive been feeling light headed, dizzy, and weak. Its been going on for about a week already. Really worried and dont have medical insurance to go see a doctor. Im home all day 5x a wk and i am stressed. Can that be a trigger?

hello there!
no doubt stress and young age parent hood are triggers for many troubles. dizziness al need a little care, some prokinetics like proclorperazine, some betahistadine, some steroids, some meclizine, some rest and last but not the least some diet and lifestyle modifications. losing weight would be a good start. then seeking a psychiatrist for these anxiety induced palpitations with low doses of propanol 10 mg as anti anxiety agent would suffice. and have insurance. its a good thing.
