hello, I am a 34 year healthy athletic male, whom over the last 4 months have experienced fast heart rate, blurry vision, extreme fatigue and wieght loss. I have also had several syncope episodes associated with these symptoms. I have no medical history except GERD, which I take prilosec for. I have had a holter monitor, and an event monitor which all showed nothing except a few periodic PVC's, which occured during these "episodes". I recently had an EP study of which I went into Atrial Fib and was cardioverted. The cardiologist told me that it is common for people to experience AF during an EP study, but being that all of my previous studies (holter, event monitor) were negative, it was unlikely AF is the true problem.
She treated me anyway with Verapimil 120mg.
Before all of this I was exteremely healthy, working out, snowboardng, etc. If I even try to workout now, within five mintues I feel dizzy and feel like I am going to passout and begin to shake.
Any ideas? Should I see and internal medicine doctor? The only other positive lab test was low potassium, andI notice that one pupil is larger than the other every now and then. I also had a head CT, negative.
I don't do drugs, hardly dirnk alcohol, and eat pretty healthy (okay I cheat at McDonald's sometimes).
Please help...
