I have a fluttering sensation under my right rib cage, I have shortness of breath where I cannot go upstairs without becoming winded. When I sit I breathe heavy. I am 42 years old and my ideal weight is 130, but I currently weigh 164 and am down from 172. I eat healthy and try to exercise, however the shortness of breath hinders me. The weight gain has been over the last year. I went to a dr. last Jan. about the fluttering sensation, had ultrasound, etc. and was told nothing wrong. I wake up feeling thin, but as soon as anything goes in my mouth my body bloats up. My diet is mainly, fish, veggies, high protein. I can t loose weight easy and I have NO energy. Any ideas?
