Lightheadedness... what else could this be?

Hi. This is a really long story but I will sum it up and make it short. I've had constant lightheadedness for the past five months. It feels like I could pass out and loose consciousness at any moment. I can not correlate my symptoms with any of my actions, such as foods I eat, activities I do, etc. I've seen a cardiologist, neurologist, ENT, endocrinologist, allergist and a few others I'm sure I'm leaving off but all my tests are coming back normal and the doctors are therefore thinking I'm just crazy and a hypochondriac. I feel miserable and I really need some answers. Can anyone think of what this could be or have you experienced similar feelings?

Symptoms:
lightheadedness (like i'm going to pass out)
dizzy
head fuzz/brain fog
tingly left arm
shortness of breath
chest pressure


Thank you for any information you could give!!

It sounds like it could be anxiety or panic attacks, I have had VERY similar symptoms with my panic attacks and have had to come the realization that it was anxiety causing all of my symptoms. It may help if you go to the pages on anxiety and read some other people's symptoms, hope this helps
