Dd losing hair, some dizzyness, and upset stomach

[Soror]

Twice this week dd-7yo has lost a chunk of hair. Over the past couple of weeks she's complained of some dizzyness here and there and stomach pains. She tends to be a carbaholic so I've thought she was not eating balanced enough meals and have been pushing that. With the hair falling out this week I'm thinking we need to get it checked out. The first time she lost a chunk I thought it was random some big tangle got pulled out but then to happen again in such a short time seems odd.

Thoughts? Ideas? 

I'm thinking I'd like to check thyroid (I have thyroid disease as does my mom, mil, and sil); 

blood sugar?

Celiac? 

Vitamin levels

Didn't she have Covid 19 recently?

Ds had it, she had some minor symptoms but was not tested (we were all quarantined anyway and testing slots aren't the easiest to come by). Interesting!!!

It’s probably post Covid hair loss, but take her in for an autoimmune panel just to be sure.

Or low iron

My 1st thought was iron deficiency anemia.

Someone who I talk to just has this with her 4 year old.  After months of labs and watching, they figured out her thyroid was off.

Any strong chemical exposure in the last month or so?  I knew someone whose hair fell out from using chemicals in an unventilated space.

I thought of thyroid too as that is a known symptom and I have it.

Iron is a good suggestion, thank you.

3 votes for Covid related, and I hadn't thought of that, of course nothing to be done about that I guess.

It could be high stress too for hair loss and upset stomach. 
A blood draw would give answers for iron and thyroid.
