    It is Hiatal Hernia by the way. The symptoms you are experiencing do not normally appear with this condition, which is an internal organ pushing out. The only symptom you should be having is heartburn, which would not cause the dizzyness and light headed feeling, so something else is going on with you causing these symptoms.

    They gave you a gravol shot because of the heartburn. I think you need another visit to your doctor to explain these current symptoms you are having.

    Other then this, I cant diagnose you on line, no one could do that.

    You could go to the ER, but the better choice would be your doctor.
