Ok, a little history. I have Celiac disease. I have been told I possibly have Fibromyalgia.
When I was pregnant with my last child (she is almost 3), I had an increased heart rate and was put on bed rest. EKG was normal, so it was just assumed it was from the stress of having another baby (she was my 4th and was born within a year of my 3rd baby). My heart racing didn't really go away. I finally went to see a cardiologist and he did an ECHO, stress test, 1 month holter monitor, and EKG's. All were normal. He did put me on a beta blocker. Two months ago, I wound up in the ER because I was having trouble breathing. No idea why. I now get short of breath when I do the smallest thing. I have been to the ER 2 more times since. During one visit, the dr. heard a small heart murmur and said I had a prolonged QT interval on my EKG. I called my cardiologist and he just blew me off and told me my heart is fine. My heart races, but not as bad since I take the beta blocker. Laying down even makes me short of breath. I feel like I can't get enough air in my lungs. I went to a pulmonologist (he seemed determined to figure it out) and he ordered a Lung Function Study. It was mostly normal. I had some air trapping and an increased respiration rate. I can't get another appointment with the same pulmonologist until June. The other pulmonologist just blew me off. Recently, I have learned that I have nodules in my thyroid. Most are consistent with Multinodular Goiter, but 1 is different. I am having a biopsy done on that one tomorrow. But they said my thyroid was not enlarged that much and it woudln't be causing an obstruction making me short of breath.
Does anyone have ANY ideas of what could be going on? Any comments or suggestions would be great. I am at my wits end. No doctor can seem to be able to figure it out or want to figure it out. I just don't know where to go next. I feel like if I wait until june for my next pulmonology appt, I will suffocate or something. My condition seems to worsen daily. Someone please help me.
Thanks
