Hello there!

All it started two years back.. I was at my home and i suddenly felt pulptations, irregular heart beats, was in panic, losing balance , losing control. i was rushed to hospital and the doctors discharged me by replying that i had a simple anxiety and nothing else..

since that day, i am having a lot of symptoms like low heart rate, losing balance, difficulty breathing, difficulty swallowing, constipation, heart pulptations, difficulty swallowing, dry eyes dry hands coarse dry hair brittle nails, some unuseual sound from my throat when i move my upper body left or right..i also experience mood swings, low concentration, low energy, confusion, forgetfullness and so on..Now it has been two years and i am struggling to live ..i am a 27 y male and slim as well..i have gone through echocardiography and the results they produced were normal. Further i have had thyroid profiles and my tsh was slightly elevated to 8mg/dl (later was also normal).My t3 and t4 were also normal..my antithyroid antibodies also normal..free t3 also normal..However during an usg of neck the doc discovered a cystic nodule on my thyroid's left lobe (but he said it will go away on its own)

i have been testing for lft kft pft and all were normal ...my usg abdomen was also normal..My symptoms are not going away despite all my efforts.. If somebody else has experienced the same, plz help by replying

thank you

Um You need a new doctor My 27 yr old daughter had a small nodule No doctor told her My other daughter who is a med student said that's what it is and to if it gets bigger see a doc Well she ignored it and the fact she was severely depressed with hair falling out Med Kid told me Somethings wrong This is not normal My daughter Breanna is a very woman She refused to accept she could be depressed and got huffy if we mentioned her health 6 yrs later the size of the nodule grew to a small size water balloon Finally went to doc She felt it and got her in to 5 different types of doctors Needless to say it was Thyroid cancer and had spread into her chest cavity and lungs Right away she had surgery at UCLA because it was an extreme case Though her thyroid is gone she still is dealing with it in her chest Doing radiation Going slower than it should I told you the extended version of the story because usually those cystic nodes don't go away She had blood work prior to finding out It was normal Please Please ask to see a Rhumatoligist Whatever you do don't give up You know you don't feel right I am not trying to scare you I just don't want people to do what my daughter did She learned a big lesson I read your post to her and she she said she will be thinking good thoughts for you  Good Luck
