I'm in bad shape. Pituitary gland? Addison's Disease? Heart problem? Please help!?


I'm in bad shape. Pituitary gland? Addison's Disease? Heart problem? Please help!?I have been having some health problems that worsened since having a baby. I am 20 years old. 5'5" and about 100 pounds. I have been to doctor after doctor but they don't do much. I'm about ready to give up on everything. I was wondering if anyone had input on what I should do. I may see an endocrinologist or a cardiologist.
My symptoms include:
Vitamin deficiencies
Pale skin
Fatigue (can easily sleep 20 hours straight)
Weight loss
Severe Nausea
My hair on legs isn't growing like it used to. I rarely have to shave.
Headaches
Light and heat intolerance
Tremors
Blurry vision and temporary blindness (i thought it might be medication but it still happens now that i'm off of everything)
Irregular periods (whole life)
Abdominal pain (IB)
Depression and hallucinations
Muscle weakness
Cold hands and feet
Confusion and memory gaps
Fainting spells
Low blood pressure
Resting heart rate of 100-112 (fast pulse)
Low carbon Dioxide levels
BREATHING ATTACKS during them I cannot talk. i've always had trouble inhaling and taking deep breaths but when I do now i have trouble inhaling at all sometimes i pass out. IT IS NOT ANXIETY. my throat was x-rayed during pregnancy before i had respiratory arrest and was intubated. the veins or whatever they are called were swollen for a few hours. They have now been swollen for 3 days straight and more breathing attacks are occuring.

I have not gotten a diagnoses just referral after referral. One dr. mentioned the pituitary gland and adrenal insufficiency, another dr. fibromyalgia. i don't know if it's addison's disease or what. any ideas? PLEASE HELP.

I know that you will get a million answers, so I will try to wise in my statement. My friend's sister had all kinds of problems like you. She too had gone to countless doctors in several states. In her late twenties, her mother discovered a "Naturopathist." This is someone who has a PhD in NATUROPATHY. They are few in numbers but are "God sent." These professionals are not to be confused with any other group out there. My friend's sister (who should have died) is 100% whole and have gone on with her life.

A naturopathis always work with M.D.s and some are M.D.s. Look on the computer or in the yellow pages to find one close to you. In six months, you will be shaking your head. Because my mother and sister died from circulation problems, I go to one every so often here in El Paso, Texas. Wish you the best.

WOW! Has NOBODY tested your thyroid!?! These other things you were tested for can have same or similar symptoms and can be there too along w/ thyroid disease. Have Antibodies test as well as TSH test....INSIST on both!

God bless you
