Hello! This really is an amazing community for people who have other than the most routine symptoms!
For a long time, I, too have been going the route of being told "you're fine, you have anxiety, you need to do X, blah blah blah". This while knowing something was wrong. I, too, have an implanted loop recorder. And I have begun to feel kind of crazy when I see this list!
Turned out to be several things, long undiagnosed celiac disease, pernicious anemia, UCTD, AFib, labile hypertension, neuropathy, cutaneous Lupus, on and on, most recently Pure vasovagal response as the result of a Tilt Table Test.
That is a dysautonomia!
There's a drug to raise blood pressure! I am not starting it unless things get way worse! Too many pills already! The side effects of one creates the" need" for another ad nauseam.
(Note: I am investigating Hawthorn berry for AFib, my sister told me about it.)
And the rest of it? The symptoms?
For now, I am going to live with it. I am blessed not to have severe problems, just a lot of them, and, at the moment, grateful to have a diagnosis of dysautonomia explaining SO much?
I wish you all the best health-wise and that you find peace!
