Hi everyone,
I am suffering with bouts of breathessness which are very scary. I also have palpitations. So far all medical tests are ok, one or two more to go. They thought i had a blood clot in the lung but not so. As the breathlessness is often accompanied by a hot flush and feeling of anxiety I can only assume menopause has returned to bother me again, after a year symptom free.
I am worried, though, as being short of breath was never a symptom previously. It can last several hours, leaving me exhausted and unable to work some days.
I noticed a forum post from last February from k9love and she seems to have suffered similar symptoms.
How long is this debilitating symptom going to last? Will I have to quit my job as a nursing lecturer due to being unable to get enough breath to teach?
Can someone out there give me some reassurance please, that this will pass?
