Answer 1

Since you have not mentioned the age of the patient, the probable assumptive diagnosis is that of Anxiety or that of Hormones!
This article will help you in the later part i.e. Hormones:

Perimenopause (premenopause)

Perimenopause is the phase before menopause actually takes place, when ovarian hormone production is declining and fluctuating, causing a host of symptoms.

Some clinicians maintain that perimenopause can last for as long as 5 to 15 years, while others refer to perimenopause as that period which is a 3 to 4 year span just before menopause. Either way, many women experience more symptoms during perimenopause than after menopause. Because this often happens at an age between 35 and 45, many women's symptoms are overlooked or ignored by their healthcare providers.

Most premenopausal women experience changes in their menstrual cycle. When estrogen levels begin to drop, the follicular phase of the cycle may be shortened, and this can shorten the total cycle from 28–30 days to 24–26 days, resulting in more frequent periods. On the other hand, some women begin having longer cycles because they are not ovulating as frequently. These changes can be quite different on an individual basis. Additionally, this declining/fluctuating estrogen level can produce a host of disturbing symptoms: hot flashes, increasing vaginal dryness, sleep problems, mood swings, breast tenderness and many other complications.

Many clinicians believe this is a perfect time to begin judicious estrogen/progesterone/testosterone therapy because then the hormone supplements do not create an excess, but are simply replacing a failing internal supply.

Hypertension is sometimes very serious, since the risk of stroke, as well as heart and kidney problems, can increase if the blood pressure gets too high. Stressful episodes of nervousness or worry may raise the blood pressure temporarily, but long-term resting elevated blood pressure is more dangerous and should be monitored. A constitutional remedy chosen by an experienced prescriber is the most appropriate way to treat deep-seated, serious, or chronic conditions. Some remedies may be useful as first-aid in intense situations, but medical care should also be sought immediately. Remedies below have been helpful to some people with hypertension. They are mentioned here to introduce a few of the possibilities homoeopathy can offer, and not as recommendations for self-treatment

Answer 3

Not being rude but how old is she pls?? Depending on her age depends whether it could be Menopause related, or is she on any medication at the moment? Check the side affects. The other thing for dizziness/sickness and weakness is a defect in the ear which has knocked her sense of balance off. I know that that may sound very silly but my Auntie was admitted to hospital for 4 weeks with this so I am sort of know what i am talking about

Answer 4

Blood pressure readings can be deceptive because they fluctuate and I am surprised a doctor hasn't explained that to you or your wife. When she is sitting calmly at the doctors office waiting to be seen in all probability her b.p. goes down so they get a different reading from when she is experiencing what you describe. You should start to record when she is getting these feelings so you can tell her doctor and maybe trace what is causing it. Where I live we have blood pressure machines in a lot of the drug stores. I was told by my cardiologist they are pretty accurate. If you have access to one, if you can get your wife to it during one of these episodes or shortly after, it may tell you a lot more than your doctor is. I've lived with very high blood pressure for years and what you describe is exactly what I feel when my pressure is elevated.

Answer 5

you should have mentioned her age ! As in the age of 40 to 45 it is but natural in some woman as they have this menopausal syndrome ! where this thing occurs 1Hot flushes etc ! If her blood pressure is OK and other test is normal than there may be depression or anxiety i mean some mental stress ! Give her some mild tranquilizer and see all things improved ! Always YouRsmE

Answer 6

That sounds peculiar to me that she is sick enough to want to go to the doctor--I think that the next step would be to go get a head x-ray and possibily chest x-rays---this may also be a respiratory issue--she should look into getting a lung exam

Answer 7

Consult a Neurologist.
