For the last 2 weeks Ive had slight bouts of lightheadedness throughout the day.
Ive recently stopped taking the antidepressant Mirtazapine and had a bad cold 3 weeks ago. My doctor thinks the dizziness is still inflammed sinuses from my cold and maybe a bit of withdrawal from the antidepressants.
I, however, have a massive health anxiety about dropping dead suddenly from Sudden Cardiac Arrest and have read that lightheadedness can be a symptom of impending SCA in the weeks before it.
Im a 30 year old female, i quit smoking 3 years ago and I have a physical job and exercise for an hour 4 days a week. I know im not a high risk for SCA but doctors miss things and SCA can strike ANYONE!
I cant sleep or function properly thinking Im going to drop dead at any minute.
I should also mention that Ive had 2 ECGs (normal), good cholesterol and have had blood tests for heart disease done (normal).
Please Help!
