They have not, although I did have to ask for a stress test which just happened this past friday. I had one just before all of the flare ups started last year, a few months before actually. This is the first one during all of this. Though, I am on Amlodipine already, as well as Olmesartan. He started Atenolol in a very low dose after the flare ups started to help control my heart rate so it go extremely fast during as the first few episodes caused panic attacks because I didn't know what was going on. We still don't know, but, I am a little more calmer when it happens. I have had many heart echos since then which shows no issues, and a holter monitor for 48 hours which did catch a minor flare up but the ECG seemed normal during it I was told.

I will definitely ask him about it to see what he believes as he's been willing in the past to help everyone else including my parents with tests, it just seems I am overlooked when the normal tests come back negative from all of my doctors.

You mentioned you are hypermobile. I am looking at some of your symptoms. Has anyone mentioned a possibility of EDS? There is more than one type, and some people have more than one. Major, unexplained issues can throw our whole body and mind into a tailspin. Sometimes even little things are exacerbated by fear of the unknown of what our bodies are exhibiting. We seek answers for causes so we can move forward with treatment, tools, or knowledge for dealing with our issues. I hope you find answers soon.

Did you have the Covid infection and get the shots? I wonder if long Covid is causing some of your symptoms.
