What Causes Breathlessness,heart Flutters And Fatigue?
I am 83 years old female...have breathlessness, heart flutters and lack of stamina. Had pulmonary and heart tests, which only show my lung lining is not as porous as it used to be and have heart bundle block which should not be a problem). My Mercy PC approved getting someone (but had no recommendations) in St. Louis area, to look at tests (duplicated over four year period) and see if something has been missed....possibly a geriatric doctor. Symptoms getting worse. I do not want to give in to these limitations. Have Medicare and Supplement. Thanks for your guidance.
