im better today just the normal exhaustion and breathlessness poor DH has the bug now now im struggling to care for him and the kids, I had to cancel my Dr app yesterday i couldnt even sit up lucky my inlaws could look after the kids for half a day, i have a uni exam tomorrow morning (which ive barely studied for) and the kids will be at daycare so i can rest.Then thurs morn ill have a 24hr holter monitor fitted but im not really expecting any abnormal results from hear studies its just to rule out.
I feel like im going crazy i feel sick all the time but all the tests are negative and by all medical standards so far im normal so thers no explanation
There has to be an explanation for your breathlessness? Did you have the results from the ultrasound? Have you had respiratory function tests? It must be so awful to be feeling so unwell with no explanation, maybe see someone else for a second opinion? , hugs.
I saw another dr and as soon as i saw him i knew he would be no help he started arguing with me as if i was an idiot and said there was nothing wrong and he was so rude!
Im not stupid I have an advanced diploma in Pathology and have been working in a hospital lab for 6 years and studying my registered nursing
one thing we have drummed into us in nursing is if a person is in pain only the patient can say how much pain their in you cant assume they arent in pain but here everyone is assuming im fine just because my vitals are normal, they keep blaming it on me being a tired mother
i really need to leave work to rest and recover but i cant without some way to survive financially centrelik would just cut short for us.
I know that feeling when you know straight away that a doctor is going to be no help and you might as well have set fire to 60 bucks
I was wondering about your echocardiogram results and how the right side pressures were.... thinking pulmonary hypertension or embolus, but I guess they have ruled that out. I wonder if you could ask to be referred to a specialist i.e cardiologist? I have looked after patients with heart disease who present with similar symptoms, especially women who have been fobbed off for some time prior to hospital admission. I don't mean to alarm you, but you know something is not right. I'd keep pushing for answers x
Im guessing if there was anything abnormal in the echocardiogrami would have had a phone call from my dr to come in by now im thought it might be more related to Ehlers Danlos I was wondering if a rhemuatologist might be able to rule that out at least
