[|Human|] Hi, I am 45 years old, female, 153cm & 56kg. I am experiencing dizziness, shortness of breath, increased heart rate (120bpm), and feelings of weakness on mild exertion. 6 months ago I had high blood pressure (140-150/95-107) and now about 130/80-85,also brisk reflexes. At that stage I was 59kg and drank 8-12 cups of black tea per day. (I now drink 4-6 cups of tea). The doctor also suggested that the odd bit of alcohol might be good, but I don t enjoy alcohol. I have had 2 x heavy menstrual periods and my haemoglobin dropped from 132 to 117. HCT dropped to .35, and everything else was normal. Do you think it is just the drop in Hb causing my symptoms. Thanks Jayne
[|AI|]  Hi, dear. I have gone through your question. I can understand your concern.  You have low hemoglobin.  It can lead to shortness of breath, palpitation, dizziness etc. You have heavy menstrual bleeding that will lead to all this. You should consult your gynecologist and take treatment for heavy blood loss. Once your hemoglobin will improve, your symptoms will subside. Consult your doctor and take treatment accordingly. Hope I have answered your question, if you have doubt then I will be happy to answer. Thanks for using Chat Doctor. Wish you a very good health.
