I Had My Lung Collapse A Couple Times About 4

I had my lung collapse a couple times about 4 years ago I ended up having blebs I had surgery where they removed some pieces. Im 44. Around the same time I discovered I had pancreatitis. I've had diarrhea loose stool pretty much my entire life I'm used to it. When I found out what was going on in the greasy stinky floaty poo poos I was having was due to my pancreas I stopped eating fat for a while. I lost quite a bit of weight. And also seem to stop the poo poo problem. I did start eating more normally and have put more weight back on for the last year or so. Well for quite some time now very little activity will at times quite often make my muscles very weak and shaky I feel like a noodle I get short of breath I get dizzy I kind of feel like I'm just going to collapse into a puddle. I've always been the type of person who can rake and do yard work all day long it's kind of a joke around here. Now I can hardly walk to the back of the yard and back up to the front without feeling like I need to take a break. My joints I've had issues with also since I was a teenager. These are all things that I've lived with they don't stop me from doing much I do realize I'm older but this extreme muscle thing where I feel like I'm going to fall into a puddle it's just very strange. Cuz I know I have digestion and absorption problems is there a vitamin that could possibly help with that? For the most part I'm not a hypochondriac I've had issues with my back and pain since I started my periods at 13 I power through it. I know it's kind of far-fetched but I've looked up cystic fibrosis due to a lot of my back pain being from phlegm.. I've also always had issues where it just feels like it's stuck in there and if I rap on my back a little bit or wiggle myself around in weird positions I can usually cough it up and my back don't hurt me anymor, again this is been since I was a teenager. I know these are all very strange random symptoms, most of them by this point I just live with them but this wanting to fall into a noodle puddle and get dizzy thing I'm not liking it so much. Imma doer.. I was out of the hospital walking around with my chest tube n gross box of ooze going into the store and doing the things I needed to do. I probably wore a passing that hospital hallway walking around after my surgery. Thank you very much for anything you can advise. As an afterthought I also am supposed to be on thyroid medicine which I haven't been taking I let my insurance lapse. I've been off of it before due to the same issue and it didn't do this to me but I am older now
