What Does High Heart Rate, Shortness Of Breath And High Neutrophil Level Indicate?
Hi
Can you tell me what the following symptoms might be from?
heart rate 135
shortness of breath
High Neutrophils
My sister aged 23, has always had breathing problems off and on since her teenage years and we think she is allergice to pine nuts however she has never been diagnosed as having allergies. Recently she had been kept overnight for her rapid heart rate and tested for thyroid (ok), ekg (ok) among other things which I assume were the standard tests. In the end they recomended she see a cardiologist. She will today.
Can you tell me what those symptoms might be typical of?
I passed carefully through your question and would explain that high neutrophils and shortness of breath could be related to an airway infection. For this reason, I would recommend performing first a chest X ray study and pulmonary function tests.
Further tests to consider would be:
- A cardiac ultrasound - An ambulatory 24-48 hours ECG monitoring for possible cardiac arrhythmia
- Thyroid hormone levels for possible thyroid gland dysfunction.
You should discuss with her doctor on these tests.
Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
