Shortness of breath and heart keeps skipping a beat with other symptomes.

Male 26 white 6ft 350 pounds down from 380 in 2 months.

History of acid reflux been on lansoprazole for 5 years had endoscopy done in past few years but no sign of if, but when I stop medication I get symptoms of tasting acid in my throat.

8 years on ramipril for high blood pressure.

Asthma when I was a child.

Started fluoxetine on 6th January

6th January 1st time had these what I think are Eptobic beats, my heart would pause for a second or so and I would have this strange feeling in my chest, I have had them every day since.

13th Jan Shortness of breath started when sitting or lying feels like my breathing is being blocked or restricted at the same time I started getting trapped gas and burping after every thing I eat or drink " I do not eat anything that can cause this to happen" and this is still on going.

Feb 8th Shortness of breath has gotten worse and now affects me when walking at times I feel like ive done a work-out when im hardly moved, but then there are times I can walk and be okay. I started to awake up at night, feeling very restricted with my breathing.

Feb 10th and 24 hours of pains all over my belly and around 20 episodes pure water dirahear,

Feb 11th and on going, I feel nausea all the time with no appetite and when ever I do eat a meal hours later it tends to come back up my food pipe and I feel tightness in the chest.

Feb 13th stools seem orange and lighter in colour than normal and been getting stabbing pains in stomach area and to the right.

Ive been A and E number of times, they have done ECG Bloods and chest x-ray all normal.

Had Ultra sound done a month ago due to other reasons on my liver pancreas and gallbladder which was normal other than a fatty liver which I've had for a long time.

I just do not know what going on or what else to do to try and make them listen and do something.

Has anyone got any ideas at all what could be happening, Anything would be appreciated thank you !

Hi,

I can see from your history that you have a lot of things going on. Has anyone ever asked if you are hypermobile? People with hypermobility spectrum disorder or Ehlers-Danlos syndrome often have difficulties with reflux, digestion, motility, joint pain and so on, and often they are ignored because the standard blood tests and x-rays don't show anything. Have a look at this website and see if anything makes sense to you.
