for a few years ive had shortness of breath chest tightness/pain pain in back when inhaling extreme fatigue after walking, climbing stairs, etc. i used to turn pale, my feet are two different shades, i would get cold hands & feet, headaches, muscle weakness, fatigue that is overwhelming sometimes, tingling/pins & needles. at first i was told anemia but my cbc said my hgb was 12.5 but doc still said to take iron for a while and my hgb went to 13.9 but my symptoms never changed so i eventually stopped. i was just told it was anxiety but i cant believe anxiety is causing all this cause what am i even anxious about. ive had several ecgs, several blood tests, been to the hospital/clinic atleast 30 times within the past 3 years. some days its better some days its worse but it doesnt go away. i do recall one time i did feel better like had no symptoms but that only last a few months. ive dropped out of college because of this & ive had to take days off from work because of this i just dont know who can help me.
Im really sorry you are going through this have you had a CATscan yet?? I was having similar issued several months back that had been around for about 3 years. I thought it had something to do with my mitral vaulve prolapse, but after months of being told it wasn’t anything, a doctor finally gave me a cat scan and it showed i had a collapsed lung. Not saying that will be your problem, but it could be something to look into.
no i havent had a cat scan
That might be something to look into. I am very active and it got to the point where I couldn’t run anymore. My oxygen levels were always good so without the CAT scan they wouldn’t have known. I hope it all gets figured out for you.
