Hello Tina T,
Thanks for your response. I actually took mylsef to the hospital one morning when upon waking my pulse was about 130-135. They had no idea and discharged me with ANXIETY. They fit me with a 24 hour heart monitor and all it showed was that yes, my pulse was going up from time to time, but all looked normal.
I went to a cardiologist, and had a chest x-ray, EKG, and an ultrasound done and everything is fine. He mentioned perhaps putting me on a beta-blocker but it wasn't neccessary.
None of my DR's seem to have an idea, my OBGYN thought it could perhaps be from hormone fluctuations due to getting off of the birth control pill and my body trying to regulate itself.
Like I said, the blood tests show nothing in the way of thyroid, though my general practicioner said my symptoms are very similar to a thyroid problem.
I also seem to feel tired after eating pretty often, though I have no blood sugar problems.
Yes it is all very frustrating, and costly...
It really would help if I could narrow down where to look for answers.
I have had DR's tell me that it is maybe something I just have to get used to.
I know there must be an answer somewhere...
Thanks for forwarding that along, I appreciate your help!
