previous medical history

from age 18 to 25 i suffered from left kidney stone (oxalate calcium) at this period i do many lithotripsy for kidney stone (6-8 times).
last time at age 25 ,a part of stone get stuck in a ureter , my doctor suggest to do "ureteroscopic stone removal" treatment , now i dont suffer from kidney stone but i feel sometimes pain or weak when cold come and my previous result of kidney echography before 6 month show no more stone .note the last 3 years i begin to take "esidrex 25mg" "allopurinol 100mg" regularly .

present medical history

over 1 years ago, I was given blood checks including trigliceride, cholesterol ,thyroid hormone test and an echocardiogram because I was having rappid heartbeats.
in this period i faced very constant stressful environment sometimes i felt deep headaches until this day i remember.

The result :
I have sinus tachycardia 130-150 beat
blood pressure go up to 15/10 when i stressed

TSH 1.7MIU/ML - T4 1.1 NG/100ML
kidney normal functioning
glucose 100 normal

the cardiologist I met with said my heart is fine and he said that some body's reaction in an aggressive way with stressful situation and some not
he said take 5mg of concor (morning) and 5mg atorvastatin (evening)

-before 3 weeks ago i visited my dermatologist (about my chest "dermite séborrhéique- a ring-shaped
patches") he said when a stress come this red patches in your chest and face appear ,and he asked me why you're not making an echography of your thyroid gland nodules and see if there is a nodules shape problem, he said even you do a thyroid hormone test with normal result this unusual nodule shape worsen your case ,and he added maybe a thyroid gland surgical operation prevent you to take beta blocker but on the other side you take thyroid related pill.

I was diagnosed with Mitral Valve Prolapse a few years ago. While it is believed to be heart related I came across this information.  I have fibromyalgia and have experienced symptoms similar to yours.  Check out this website, I wonder if it has anything to do with what you are describing.  I hope it helps in some way.
Do you have Fibromyalgia?

What is MVP? (Mitral Valve Prolapse)
In a normal valve the flow of blood goes from the left atrium to the left ventricle.  Upon closing, it prevents blood from going back into the left atrium.  With MVP the flaps don't close evenly.  One or both flaps collapse backwards, sometimes allowing a small amount of blood to leak through the valve.  Mitral valve prolapse is a genetic disorder and seems to affect women three times more than men.  It is one of the most common cardiac findings.  There is usually no need to be concerned.  The heart is functioning perfectly normally and does not tend to degenerate over time.  Diagnosis is usually confirmed by an echocardiogram, which provides an actual picture of the valve.  Infection of the mitral valve, endocarditis, is extremely rare.  However, people with MVP have a slightly greater risk of contracting it.  The American Heart Association no longer suggests antibiotic prophylaxis for certain dental and surgical procedures.  

What is MVP Syndrome/Dysautonomia?
About 40 percent of patients with mitral valve prolapse also have an imbalance of the autonomic nervous system, or ANS, called dysautonomia.  The ANS is composed of two systems; the parasympathetic and the sympathetic. It controls virtually all bodily functions, such as respiration, heartbeat, blood pressure, vision, and digestion.  When this system is out of balance it can cause myriad symptoms, including panic attacks, anxiety, fatigue, palpitations, migraines, irritable bowel syndrome (IBS), and more.  This combination of symptoms is known as MVP Syndrome.  Diagnosis is made by physical examination, a careful medical history, and an echocardiogram.  Unfortunately, MVP does not always show up on an echocardiogram.  Thus, MVPS is a clinical diagnosis.  Usually symptoms don't show up before the age of 14 or 15, but more and more children display central nervous system symptoms before the MVP shows up.  Ninety-eight percent of people with MVP Syndrome/Dysautonomia have nothing wrong with their heart.  The majority of symptoms are caused by an out-of-balance nervous system.

"Diagnosis of dysautonomia (MVP Syndrome) is a clinical diagnosis not requiring the prolapse of the mitral valve to confirm or deny that diagnosis."
Richard O. Russell, Jr.,
Clinical professor of medicine in the division of cardiology at the University of Alabama, School of Medicine.

Many times the symptoms of MVPS/D are triggered by some life event.
Common triggering events are childbirth, a major viral illness, menopause, accident, surgery, going to college (leaving home and stress), death of a loved one, marriage, moving, and divorce.  Our nervous system doesn't differentiate between good or bad stress.
