Hello @amroberts,

I've read with interest your post about your ongoing health problems. I'm so glad that you and your medical team are persisting in looking for answers. It can really be frustrating to have symptoms like yours and not to understand the origin, isn't it?

While I understand that it has been several years since your diagnosis of ehrlichiosis (a tick-borne disease), I found some information about this on the CDC website. https://www.cdc.gov/ehrlichiosis/treatment/index.html. It would be good to always remind the new doctors you see about having had ehrlichiosis.

You also mentioned, "the results said pulmonary pressure was not calculated due to poor envelope strength." I'm not sure what that means, but here is some information about Echocardiograms from the American Heart Association, https://www.heart.org/en/health-topics/heart-attack/diagnosing-a-heart-attack/echocardiogram-echo.

The advice that has been posted about seeking another opinion from a teaching hospital/clinic, like Mayo or a university medical center, is a very good suggestion. Do you plan on following up with that?
