I am a 49 year old female. Beginning over a year ago, I have been experiencing the following:
head gets lighthead (never black out), sometimes causes me to get extremely weak, occassionally accompanied by chest pains. Will get weak in the legs if standing too long. BP and Pulse Rate extremely erratic
Conditions are erratic and not triggered by stress, food, etc.
Recently, I have been told by my family that I have short term memory loss.
After a MAJOR episode at my office I was in the hospital for a week -- had the following tests run:
MRI, MRA, CAT Scan, EEG, EKG, Nuclear stress test, 2 tilt table tests (inconclusive but indicative of BP changes --- not enough to diagnose neurocardiogenic syncope) sonigrams of various parts of my body and LOTS of blood work, including diabetes, cortisol levels, etc.
Several months later even had angiogram to completely rule out the heart (FINALLY a month ago, BP / Pulse got stabalized ... but still symptoms)
Doctors seen:
Neurologist in hospital
ENT
Cardiologist
Cardio Electrophysiologist
Gynocology
Eye Doctor (who recently told me my eyes were getting drastically BETTER)
Endocrinologist
All of the doctors acknowledge that I have something wrong, and have agreed that it significantly affects my life, but unfortunately, they are all stumped.... WHAT NOW?
