What Causes Chest Pains With Black Outs And Dizziness?

So lately I've been having some chest pains and I've fainted a couple times. I black out and get dizzy usually when I stand up. I can't see and I get all numb and dizzy. I've fallen over a couple times. I've also been having back and joint pains, and my ribs are very weird. One of them juts straight out, but the other ones kind of sideways. I don't know if that has anything to do with anything though. Im a 14 year old girl. Please help. I've already been to a dr., but they hadn't really said anything was wrong. I still think somethings wrong though.

Thanks for your question on Healthcare Magic.
I can understand your concern.
At your age of 14 years, heart diseases are very unlikely. But your all symptoms like chest pain, blackouts, dizziness etc are commonly seen with heart diseases like valvular heart diseases.
So first get done ecg and 2d echo.
If both these are normal then no need to worry for heart diseases.
Sometimes, stress and depression can also cause similar symptoms.
So better to consult psychiatrist and get done counselling sessions. Try to identify stressor in your life and start working on it's solution.
You may need anxiolytic drugs too.
Don't worry, you will be alright. Avoid stress and tension, be relax and calm.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
