Trying to figure this one out - Open to All Other Health Topics Message Board

Here is my problem. I get winded very easy, sweat very easy and my heart rates jumps up very fast when I exert myself. I've had so many test done and my family doctor, my cardiologist and hematologist say that there is nothing wrong with me. I have been working out for about 5 years so I keep in pretty good shape. I don't do much cardio, but that shouldn't cause this issue.

I could be working on something very simple and I will start to sweat real easy, especially from my head. If I would say start running on a treadmill, I run out of breath fast and my heart starts racing.

After my family doctor sent me for different test and they came back good, he sent me to have a stress test done. The cardiologist was very concerned when my heart rate jumped up real fast as I start running on the treadmill for the stress test. He wanted to send me to the hospital and have test done on my heard. I went ahead and did it. They put me to sleep and put a camera down my throat to monitor my heart. I can't remember the technical name, but when I came too, the doctor who did the procedure said that there is nothing wrong with my heart.

I am still fighting with this issue. It seems like no one can figure out why this is happening. Like today, it was real cold out, about 5 degrees. I went and bought some roofing shingles, about 12 bundles. Every time I would pick up a bundle and load it in the truck, I had to stop and catch my breath. I got to the point that I was sweating from head in the cold weather.

I know I have sleep apnea and am not sure if that could be causing my problems since apparently I am not getting good sleep and I feel it too.

Anyone with some kind of idea of what my issue could be?

I'm assuming you've been tested for asthma.

Why do you not do any cardio? I think that may be part of the issue.

I did ask my doctor about the asthma and he said I don't have it. I don't weaze or anything either. I do cardio occasionally, it is just hard to find the time. I could see getting winded after a while, but it happens very fast when I exert myself, like within 15 seconds and the way I sweat so fast over doing just minor things. And my heart rate jumps up very quick very fast.

I don't know if this will help, but I thought I would post it anyway.

I too noticed that I got winded easily and my heart would start beating faster. I stopped this workout program I was doing because I got sick. When I started it back up I started noticing those problems. I figured it was the program. I decided to start going for walks instead. That did it to me too. Over the past few months I have noticed that I hold when breath when I exert myself. I have concentrated on this and saw that this was causing my problems.
