Hi,

It is understandable to be concerned about the chest pain and loss of consciousness.

You would need to be assessed by your doctor. A complete history and physical examination are necessary. An ECG will likely be part of your examination in light of your chest pain. It is possible, if there are any conditions affecting the heart, that this would then affect the ability of the heart to pump blood to the brain which would lead to decreased consciousness and disturbance of vision.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Michelle Gibson James,
General & Family Physician
