Question
hi. nyc resident. 12 weeks into feeling awful. extreme fatigue, tightness across upper chest, with periodic stabbing pains. difficult to concentrate. feel short of breath. get periodic "rushes" where my pulse elevates and i feel a flush of warmth. my dr sent me to a heart guy (no problems), and a lung guy (nothing obvious) who gave me a steriod inhaler that has muted the chest pains. feeling really worn down. another round of blood tests last thurs, no results yet. thanks.
Hello, so sorry it took so long to answer, my outlook recieved an error message awhile back.
This sounds to me like you mostlikely have hyperthyroid possibly mixed with possible acid reful (does food ever come up?). Is your TSH particularly low? Also, check out pages on thyroid and adrenals.. Get books related to thyroid related issues, you're most likely seeing a conventional dr. This dr doesn't know how to treat the thyroid. GEt a holistic dr, you'llfind out how on thyroid dr page.
Keep me posted.
Sincerely Hope t.

Expertise
I can answer any question regarding the sugar-imbalance, cravings, diabetes, and hypoglycemia. I have extensive knowledge about the thyroid, adrenals depression, insomnia, fatigue, weight-loss and nutrition.

Experience
http://insomniafatigue.com I first started experts in april, Before my experts was accidentally erased, I had over 140 very appreciative ratings and my ratings were all over 97.8. I am someone whom after 18 years of insomnia and depression jump-started my
life when I logged onto the Internet. I dug deeper with other forms of
information, and found myself unveiling both the politics of medicine and
the real answers behind the cause of my illness. My health journey took
many doctor appointments, lab tests, and perseverance, which led to the
establishment of my natural instincts and healing properties. You have the
ability to do the same.
