Diagnosed with neurocardiogenic Syncope
Hello, so I am new to this app and this page. I’ve been dealing with a lot in the last two years and finally got diagnosed. They also think I could have POTS but I didn’t fail my tilt test so they said they couldn’t tell. My doctors have been amazing and did a lot of tests on me even though everything came back normal. I get very dizzy and light headed after any type of activity. I’m a teacher so I go up and down a lot of stairs. I have to put my head between my legs to keep me from passing out. My doctor put me on a beta blocker metaprolol which for a while really helped. Well it still helps it’s just giving me awful side effects I’m not passing out but I get terrible nausea and debilitating exhaustion. I go to work but when I come home I go to bed immediately then get up eat dinner and go to bed. I’m only 26 and I can’t seem to get over being so tired. I recently just moved into my own house so I’m trying to get things together but I can’t get out of bed when I am home. My blood pressure is stabilized now but I still have chest pain that is very sharp and comes back throughout the day. I have another appt with my cardiologist on Wednesday I’m going to talk to him about all my symptoms and see if we can do something else. I take two other medications fluoxetine and ajovy so I can’t have anything that mixes with those. Has anyone else experienced something like this and what did you do for the fatigue and pain?
