2nd opinion: This is one of those problems where a visit to your doctor is necessary to figure out what's going on. Only after a thorough evaluation, including examination and possibly labs and other tests, can your doctor correctly diagnose you and treat you effectively.

Could be related: Pleuritic chest pain could be related to an initial diagnosis of svt (supra-ventricular tachycardia or rapid heart beat). The pain itself could be a cause for dizziness and nausea. A rapid heart beat (tachycardia) can also be a normal response to the pain of pleurisy.
