HI all, I'm 29 years old. I'm here to see if anyone may have some help with some symptoms I've been experiencing the past few months. It started in July one night I awoke to a fast heart rate, chest pain, flushing, hard time breathing and extreme dizziness that got worse when I tried to get up and walk around. I called 911 and went to the hospital as I thought I was dying. I was ruled out for cardiac issues, clot in my lung. The remainder of the month I was evaluated by a cardiologist as I had a baseline abnormal EKG. I had a 64 slice CT of my heart to rule out cardiac blockages, or problems with the heart vessels that may have been from birth. Needless to say all the tests were normal. I had my thyroid checked, again normal. I wore an event monitor for 30 days, again all normal, with the exception of a few times of regular rhythm, but fast heart rate. So, I was put on Toprol XL (a BP med used to control heart rate too). For the next few months I felt "normal". I took my medication every morning and was doing well. In November of 2008, one night I awoke to the exact same symptoms as in July. This time I didn't call the ambulance, but waited it out at home with my husband. After about 3 1/2 hours of feeling horrible, I finally fell back asleep. Anyway, since that night I have not felt the same or "normal." I have lost almost 15 pounds, will have days of such extreme fatigue I have to go lay down in bed. I have days that I feel okay, and then days I don't. When I get my "episodes" as I like to call them, I go from feeling okay to getting facial flushing, extreme fatigue, achey and in some instances I feel mild lightheadedness. I have migraines, but have also experienced an increase in headaches the past few months, differing from my typical migraine. In late November and early December I still had issues with my heart rate going from a normal rate of about 65 up to 145 (recorded again from an event monitor) that I had to wear a second time for 30 days in December. At times, I do feel anxiety type symptoms, especially at night, or when I've been awoken in the middle of the night. I don't feel anxiety symptoms though when I feel the fatigue, etc. I even tried to go on Lexapro (a antianxiety medication) to see if this was all just anxiety or stress related, and it made me feel horrible. I only took 2 doses and stopped it immediately. I'm seeing an endocrinologist right now who has ruled out pheochromocytoma, again thyroid all normal. She's now ruling out some more serious conditions such as an endocrine tumor, etc. I have no idea what is going on, but would like to know if anyone has any suggestions or has had any similar symptoms. Thanks for any help, it would be greatly appreciated.
