My friend has been experiencing this burning sensation in his chest and pain around his heart for the past few weeks, and he's also feeling really weak. We're both getting pretty worried about what's causing this and what it might mean. Any idea what could be going on or what steps we should take next?

Question

I'm experiencing something that's got me really concerned. Whenever I stand up, I suddenly feel dizzy, everything seems to go black for a moment, and I start sweating. I can't keep my balance and need to hold onto something to avoid falling over. This isn't just a one-time thing; it happens a lot. I've even fainted a couple of times because of it. Do you have any idea what could be causing this?
