: Hi,
: I have been to my doctor because I have the following symptoms: shortness of breath, chest pressure, weakness, dizziness, lightheadidness, and fatigue. I also have a little wheezing. I have been like this for almost two months now and can barely function. So far, all the tests have come back normal. I am going for a PFT and Thallium stress test this week. I need to find out what is wrong with me! I have a friend who has allergies and she started with the same symptoms. The allergist she finally ended up with was the only one who found it; everyone else told her it was in her head or she was depressed. I plan on going to this person, but it's going to be awhile and I really don't want to stay in bed for another month! Anyway, can anyone tell me if they have the same symptoms or what this is? Believe me, I'm not imagining this!
: Thanks!

Debra,
It sounds like allergies to me!! I get shots 2 times a week and although I don't have all the symptoms you have I have heard many people in the waiting room complain about alot of your symptoms.
We all get to know each other very well since we spend so much time in that office. I would ask to be tested for allergies. Good luck, San
