[QUOTE="susiestar, post: 62225, member: 1233"] Step, Blb is right on track about your heart. I had anxiety heart problems (and some panic attacks) while pg with thank you. I had to see a cardiac specialist who said my heart was structurally sound but NOT handling the pg hormones well. My cardio and ob/gyn insisted on my having my tubes tied 6 wks after thank you was born. I was fine with this decision. But we did the holter monitor and had interesting happenings. The cardio looked at it and said, all anxiety. The ob/gyn was just not sure. My reg doctor pulled the entire reading (not just hte cardio's interpretation) and said "Whoa!! You are on bed rest and NO STRESS if you want to live through delivery" At which time cardio took another look and said, "Gee, this is a big issue. Guess the reg doctor is right." No apology from cardio. We have had similar issues with J's heart. I think her seizures are causing skipped beats and irregular beats. But NO ONE is listening. Get persistent. Keep calling. You have great resources (all of us, the ability to research on the web, a great brain) and can kick this doctor into gear. Do you have copies of all of your lab tests? Not just the "this is high, this is low" report, but copies of the actual results? With the thyroid and the heart and peri/menopause,, lots of things can be happening. Take the lab results and start a chart. You will need several probably (to cover all the different things) but get as many results and graph them ASAP. Often what is MOST informative is the trend in your labs. But if you don't do the chart, no one will ever know, because the docs are not going to do them. Anxiety is the pits. Big Hugs, and lots of prayers, Susie [/QUOTE]
