Hi, I have a weird situation going on. I know it doesn't make sense. I've had multiple doctors dismiss me saying there must be a mistake or I just eat too much. I've seen a significant change in my body. I'm 5'9 and 18.
In November, I caught a nasty virus from attending a concert. I stayed in the hospital for days with the worst chest pain and shortness of breath of my life. My heart rate skyrocketed (up to 140) anytime I turned in bed, stood, walked. After medicine and rest, I felt better and went home thinking I was clear.
At the time, I was weighed at 236 lbs (already overweight, ik). I have the medical report and remember it clearly. I saw my primary doctor to followup in January. this time I weighed 303. I had so much going on with life overall I didn't notice anything wrong.
I didn't feel concerned until February when daily chest pain and sob episodes returned. They happened daily, then multiple times a day for hours. I'm basically bed-ridden now from the pain. Multiple ER visits have cleared that nothing life-threatening is going on.
These last months, my weight stays around 300. I tried to eat 12-1400 calories a day, but I was extremely moody and could not function. Now, I'm doing 17-1800 calorie days. I do as much exercise as possible, like slowly walking, but it worsens my pain.
Also had a full work-up of my heart done. It showed right bundle branch block, sinus tachycardia, and left axis deviation.
I feel hopeless. Does anyone know what this could be signs of or what specialists I should see?
