1769997 tn?1313941848 I am a 53 yo male who has heart disease. I have over 40 stents as well as 2 bypass surguries. I have since developed tremendous chest pain that radiates down my left arm and up to my jaw. It comes out of nowhere and is sometimes a 10 out of 10. Nitro does nothing when it is ramped up so high. I have been in the ER 12 of the last 30 days and it is not only embarrasing but it *****. I have been told each time the ECG is good and the traponin levels are good as well as chest x rays are all good.
Avatar f tn The test result information you provide, if valid, effectively rules out the common causes of such acute symptoms, such as classical pulmonary embolic disease and coronary artery disease with acute heart failure and raises the possibility of uncommon disorders. One caveat is that in a circumstance such as this, tests that may ultimately provide a diagnosis (for example, heart catheterization, CT scanning of the lungs, echocardiograms) may be normal or marginally abnormal at the outset.
Avatar f tn A stress test is a very simple and easy test to do. It will tell if you have any irregularities with your heart. Remember that heart disease is the number one killer of both men and women in the U.S. It is always best to find and treat it in its early stages. Shortness of breath is not a symptoms of liver disease until someone develops advanced End Stage Liver Disease (ESLD). This occurs when the liver is no longer able to perform its functions.

Avatar n tn The main thing about an echo is that your cardiologist said your heart was normal structurally, no heart disease. You should retest in a few years and make sure the leakage isn't getting worse, but this is all pretty normal. There is no way I know of to reverse this, only thing I know of is a valve replacement, but that's only for pretty severe cases. You should direct any questions concerning exercise to your doctor but I would imagine there's no issue there either. Good luck!
Avatar m tn This week at one of the patient education presentations I was able to ask about Mayo, and how their standard of MS diagnosis is so much stricter than other centers in the US. This neuro said that he feels Mayo has little to offer for MS - he said they are very good with Parkinson's disease but are definitely not leaders when it come to Multiple Sclerosis. We have heard very few success stories here. Most come away feeling that they have wasted time and money.
Avatar m tn Is this even possible? I know the symptoms should still be there, but can the heart muscle grow back? That is what it feels like, because it feels like it is getting worse over time. If anyone can help, I wiould be very grateful.
Avatar f tn I agree with wanna about 100 different answers, heres my Mayo story... I have been trying to get answers to my symptoms and LP results for 9 years, I finally get enough money to go to the Mayo (My out-of-network insurance sucks) and hoping they will have all the answers I have been seeking, I was wrong they couldn't answer my questions any better than the docs in KC, I spent a little less than $10,000 out of pocket for nothing.
Avatar f tn I tested positive for HyperAdrenergic POTS and my cardiologist is trying to help, but I am his only patient with this disease. I also have many other symptoms and my family doctor thinks that my adrenal glands are the big culprit. But, how do you know when your symptoms are serious and can I have a heart attack brought on by the POTS.
Avatar f tn Yikes, I am not in the cardiology field but I have not heard of such a thing. I would trust your cardiologist over an acupuncturist. The Mayo clinic website considers it a symptom not a disease in and of itself so the underlying cause of the enlargement must be addressed.
Avatar f tn I am thinking I might have menieres disease! Anyone else experience their symptoms like this? How do i get diagnosed?
Avatar n tn I have read NUMEROUS posts/questions from readers re:fifth's disease, AKA human parvovirus B19. All the doctors keep responding that the symptoms "don't sound like fifths disease" BUT THEY DO!! Or at least a result of it! IT HAS BEEN WELL KNOWN FOR YEARS that fifth's disease can lead to arthralgias, and autoimmune (hashimotos, myocardidtis, uveitis to mane a couple) and the whole host of symptoms that go along with them.
Avatar f tn I began with flu-like symptoms, trembling, cold sweats, instability/fast heart rate. Symptoms continued throughout the day. The next day I went to ER treated for dehydration. A day later symptoms continued and I went to a different Hospital where they treated me for anxiety- I have NEVER been an anxious person, quite the opposite. Symptoms continued with heart rates of 100-160 with feelings of near syncope/passing out.
Avatar n tn I agree with Julie....lymenet offers lots of people who can help with your questions. I ca offer this: is your doctor a member of ILADS? ilads.org ILADS is a group of doctors who treat lyme disease and the co-infections that go along with this illness. This group DOES NOT follow the restrictive IDSA guidelines. Lyme Literate Doctors or LLMD's treat based on symptoms along with test results.
Avatar f tn I also had a mulititude of symptoms with no diagnosis. I went to the Mayo clinic in Florida and had the best experience. I started with an internal med doctor who listened and I was in his office for 2 hours. From there, he sent me to different specialities all within the clinic. They have people that do all this for you and although it takes time, usually over days--they were extremely efficient and did their best to schedule quickly and to work with me.
410281 tn?1254229064 If I understand your question, you are asking if the symptoms you are experiencing can occur at the exclusion of recognized symptoms and signs of HCM. Your symptoms could be in addition to the typical symptoms but doubtful. Your grandmother's condition is probably associated with infarction (heart attack) or cardiomyopathy (damaged heart tissue due to virus, etc.

Avatar f tn I think one of the main issues some people have with Mayo is its conservative approach to treatment. Mayo claims that in early MS with mild symptoms, no treatment is necessary. This flies in the face of what is generally agreed to by other MS facilities, that treating MS early provides patients with the best chance of slowing down the disease process, minimizing the number of releases in RRMS, and mitigating permanent neurological damage.
