Trouble Breathing and Dizziness

Question

Asked for Female, 20 Years

I had gone to a doctor 3 months ago because my hair was coming out and my gums looked quite pale. He did not take a blood test but said it was an iron deficiency and I should take supplements. The past month has been awful. When I lay down at night I have a shortness of breathe and feel I can't breathe, it keeps me awake, i have minor dull headaches every day and small chest pains at night along with a general lightheadedness at night and sometimes at work. What could the issue be?
