@nafoyo I'm glad that you provided a bit more information. While I understand your wanting answers and a treatment plan, some diagnoses take time. I have had health problems that also took a lot of visits to specialists and a lot of persistence in looking for answers. I know how frustrating it can be, but keep looking for answers. I hope that another member of Connect might be able to offer you some suggestions.
What is your most difficult symptom right now, @nafoyo?

My most difficult symptom is I can barely jog 30 seconds without running into chest pain and running out of breath.. When I stop to rest my heart is not racing but I the sensation feels like I just finished a fast sprint. Another symptom I have is my stomach gets so tight I can barely breath deep with any exertion. For a 6 min per mile runner not to jog 30 sec is an under statement.
I appreciate your concern but I have not given up. I will be seeing a sports Cardiology group an U Penn next month. I have also recently read about another group at Mass General if U Penn doesn't pan out. This is a different personal Marathon.
