I am now retired from Private Practice, but you can still go and see other active Cardiologists that were in my Group for any evaluation at Valley Heart Associates in Modesto!

Questions & Answers

My Doctors Are Confused

I come to you after a long 2 months, I've been bedridden with no answers & Cardiologists Are Lost. "Diagnosed" Symptoms: NSVT, PVCs, SOB, POTS, Tinnitus, Severe Fatigue, chest pain. Tests completed: Echo: Normal, Trivial MR Treadmill: Norm, Stopped at 3 mins b/c of SOB ECG: SVT, NSVT, PVC TSH: Norm HS-CRP, BNP, D-Dimer: Norm Electrolytes: Norm Ferritin: Slightly Low MRI: To Be Done Anxiety: Ruled Out I cant walk more than 20 steps without severe SOB. What else can i test/do?

With a Normal Echo, that should exclude a Cardiomyopathy and your treadmil makes Ischemic heart disease less likely. I would not think the PVC's or NSVT on the treadmill would lead to your symptoms of SOB while exercising. I agree that some lung evaluation is in order now. Get an opinion from a Pulmonologist.
