Fuzziness In Stomach, Dizziness And Lack Of Concentration. Had Fatigue With Depression. Related?

My mom 66th birthday is today. Took her out to dinner. Then after walking peacefully around a store, she seemed to be having these ■ Dizziness or lightheadedness ■Lack of concentration - fuzzy ■Stomach gripey At home she took her blood pressure: 109/58 with pulse 83. She takes no medications of any kind. Usually she is experiencing fatigue and depression . Suggested diagnoses? I m guessing hypotension . Should we be concerned about heart since pulse so high.

Psychiatrist 's  Response
Hi,

Welcome to HealthcareMagic Public Forum

First her pulse rate is not high. It is under within normal limit. Her BP may be problematic, so monitor her BP. Some time person had postural hypo-tension specially on standing from sitting position, so get it tested.

Apart from that she should get her hemoglobin testing done. As low Hb can lead to weakness and dizziness. If above causes rule out then she should be evaluated for Depression by psychiatrist.

I hope this information has been both informative and helpful for you.
Wish you Good Health.
