Hi lilianna. I have not developed any heart problems. I also have shortness of breath which I attribute to the condition of my lungs. I understand your fatigue.
For me, I think of fatigue as due to multiple factors, such as having MAC and bronchiectasis, being too inactive, depression, etc. I find increasing my activity level and having social engagements help me feel better. Do you feel better after taking a walk?

Ditto the shortness of breath, but, more importantly, ditto the positive effects of increasing my activity level. It seems counterintuitive, but if I make myself walk or work in the yard when I'd much rather nap, the fatigue abates ... at least for the time that I'm moving.
