I’m having the same issues now as well. Mine is hyperthyroidism. I go for my Nuc med scan to see if my thyriod modules are cancerous. I know hyperthyroidism can cause rapid heart race, palpitation but this seems much worse. I’m assuming based on symptoms I have POTS as well

Have you taken meds for hyperthyroidism? Has anyone gotten a lupus like rash from the meds?

Do you drink coffee, colas with caffeine or chocolate and too many sweets. If so, eliminate them and I believe you will see great improvement. For me, just cutting down to what I think is very little, still causes me problems. Had an episode after ONE QUARTER cup coffee ice cream and 3 little squares of chocolate.!!!

Have you had your calcium checked?
Almost sounds like Hypocalcemia.
“ Symptomatic patients (e.g. tetany, seizures, laryngospasm or cardiac arrhythmias or dysfunction) or those with a corrected calcium below 2 mmol/L (< 8 mg/dl) should prompt urgent intervention with intravenous calcium replacement.”
There are a lot of symptoms, but I would definitely recommend you have that checked to be sure.
This may be a dumb question, but have you had a Cardiology Full work up with sono on legs, Echo…?
It is not uncommon after hard pregnancy/birth to have valve issues in your legs. Any Trauma to you/your body can turn into More Trauma/Autoimmune issues….
Have taken a EDS test?
Can find on internet or Ask your Doc.
