LIGHTHEADED: Not sure what 'blood work' was done, but it sounds like more cardiology-based assessment would be in order since your symptoms are reported as being related to exertion. An echocardiogram (ultrasound of the heart in real time) might be a logical next step generated via follow up with a physician.
