I pretty much just lurk here, but thought I would post this. For the last
couple of years I have been feeling awful. Unable to sleep, extreme
fatigue, muscle aches and pains, plus degenerative spinal disease. My brain
constantly felt like it was filled with sludge. I was diagnosed with Fibro
by my regular doc, a neurologist and a rheumatologist. I didn't like that
diagnosis, but no one seemed to be able to come up with a reasonable
explanation of what was causing the symptoms. I had had thyroid checks,
Lyme's disease, etc, etc. On Mother's day I woke up feeling terrible. Worse
than usual and so fatigued I could barely move. As the day wore on, I felt
worse and worse. I was sick to my stomach, in a cold sweat and so very
tired. I tried going to bed at 10 pm, but couldn't get comfortable. I was
short of breath and feeling very apprehensive. I finally googled heart
attack symptoms in women and went to the local emergency room. They sent me
by ambulance to a bigger hospital, I had atrial fibrillation. My pulse was
at 190 when I went in and my blood pressure was climbing. After three days
in the hospital where my heart rate was stabilized and some new medications
prescribed, I am better than ever. My husband picked me up and we went to
the pet store, the grocery store and out to eat. I have so much energy now.
My house is clean, the lawn is immaculate and I sleep through the night. I
am the person I was years ago ( except for the bad back). People keep
remarking on how good I look. At any rate, I just wanted to say, as have
others here, keep looking for the cause. Something is causing all those
nasty symptoms.
