@lisa11 Thanks for the reply, I am now 69 with this recurrence. I am wondering if this was triggered by long covid x 4 years (unvaxxed). I heard of Dr. Mann before. Are there articles that he specifically talks about pseudo pheo? I also have had occasional svt episodes since 2021, which was severe during active covid. I wonder if there is a genetic component in this misery. I need something I can share with my pcp. The endocrinologist I saw back in 2013 is no longer in practice. Docs today just label everything anxiety. But when I have a bad episode it literally feels like I'm not gonna make it and like someone shot my chest full of adrenaline.

@help4nurse Sorry I missed this, now over a month ago. I usually get notified of posts but didn't on this one. I will be 69 in March. I hope by now you've found Mann's articles. He does reference pseudo pheo. Good question about a genetic component. He claims there is a psychological component (childhood trauma, significant current stress, they way a person handles stress, etc). I know in my case it's true. It's likely they don't completely know all about it, maybe there is a genetic component. It is so frustrating dealing with doctors. The feeling is HORRIBLE and so frightening.
