27F Overweight  dizzy, nauseous, weak, sleepy, and seeing some black spots from time to time  respiratory acidosis?It's been a month since I've been having these weird symptoms  headaches, dizziness, nausea, weakness (specially on the legs), faintness. I feel confused some times as well.I also have bad GI problems such as bad absorption, diarrea, and/or constipation depending on the date.After 5 trips to the ER with pain on the left part of my chest, and confirming that my heart was fine, all I got diagnosed with was anxiety and POTS.But today I did some blood tests and my Bicarbonate levels were low (20; normal range is 22-29).Could I have respiratory acidosis although my oxygen levels are 95% and up?Or is this more a metabolic thing?I do feel like I can't breathe properly recently.

Your bicarbonate level is fine. It was maybe outside of the lab reference range, but it's nothing to worry about at all
Thank you for your comment. What worries me is that Im wearing a jacket and am using a blanket in bed right now.
Throw away your thermometer for an easier life.
