I have been diagnosed as CPEO Mitochondria disease, with unconfirmed muscle biopsy but myopathic EMG in bicep and back muscles. Ive had episodes of both intermittent shortness of breath (but exercise improves) and frequent urination (without infection and especially during exercise) over the years. A pulmonary assessment found good muscles but low CO2 and high O2. I was diagnosed with panic disorder. I cant reproduce the hypoventilation with hyperventilation and it is not situational. I confront my problems. Given my other diagnose could this be some kind of acid-base problem, like metabolic alkalosis due to and electrolyte imbalance? or paradoxical acidosis? or panic attack with renal insufficiency?
