Dude,
After reading your post, it sounds very familiar to me. I’ve been suffering for many years with dizziness/fainting/falling, shortness of breath, body/joint pain, digestive issues, “off” body temperatures, headaches/migraines, the list goes on & on. About a year ago, after a 2nd admission to the hospital in less than a year for cardiac episodes, my dr. told me of a condition called Dysautonomia (Dis-auto-NO-mia), a dysfunction of the autonomic (think, automatic) nervous system. It affects everything in your body that you do NOT consciously think about, including digestion, heart rate, blood volume, blood pressure, temperature control, etc. There are many different types of Dysautonomia & treatment is available. Both holistic AND pharmacological. I’m am just beginning on my journey to the “real” me, in finding a proper diagnosis, change my living situation drastically, and will hopefully be able to get off most, if not all, medications. I am NOT a medical professional!!! Just a patient who has been through the ringer & then some for 26 years! I’m not saying you DO have that (in fact, I pray you do not), but it is definitely worth looking into, if for no other reason then to find some peace & answers. I would be happy to provide you with any information of where to look if you are interested. God bless you & good luck on your journey!
