I am some problem in my chest

Male | 25

There could be many reasons for this. Sometimes it's just a case of indigestion or heartburn caused by eating too fast or consuming foods that don't agree with us. Another frequent reason is acid reflux, characterized by a burning feeling in the chest. Stress or anxiety might also be considerations since they can sometimes affect the chest. Eating smaller meals more often and avoiding fatty, spicy foods is advisable. If the matter persists seek medical help to rule out anything serious.

Can anemia cause heart palpitations?

Male | 35

In anaemia, your heart will try pumping more blood to compensate. This causes palpitations and increases the heart rate.

These might be symptoms of different medical conditions including anxiety, acid reflux, or indigestion. However, having the cardiologist do the checkup for you is a better option since you might have a heart-related condition that the layers might not realize.

I take for high blood pressure medications. I have been dizzy and pass out on occasions I read the side effects on my prescriptions and they all say they make me dizzy and the possibility of passing out. My question is this: Do you know of a high blood pressure medication that I could take one pill and it does not make me dizzy or lightheaded?

Male | 64

Yes, there are medications available to treat high blood pressure that do not make you dizzy or lightheaded like  angiotensin receptor blockers, calcium channel blockers, diuretics, etc. Please visit a doctor. Based on your individual condition and other factors, he will decide the right medicine for you. I hope this proved useful.
