Me!!!help!!!!
OK i have been having alot of little weir problems and im actually really started to get a bit nerovous..I have not went to a octor recently because im in the middle of my companys insurance changing. I have a apoitment in 1 week. Ok im 21 in ok shape. So i hae been getting the pains in my chest where it feel different and difficult to breathe like a heavy feeling in my chest. I also get a weak feeling at the top of my shoulder and own my left arm and sometimes in my leg or neck but on the left side, it also sometimes is like a really dull feeling. Also i hae been getting more an more headaches and i am always VERY TIRED. My headahes somtimes feel like there is to much pressure and when i put press down on my head it feels like it is releving the pain. I t sort of feels like when u are hanging upside down and the blood rushes to your head. I get dizzy alot and feel like i might pass out. latley i hae been having these 2 other problems, one : when i am doing stuff with my left hand , like typing it gets this weird really ancy feeling and i cant type with it because it bothers me so much its also the same when i count money. And this happens frequently, the other day i went to a swimming at a swimming pool i went in the hottub for about 3 minuets where i felt dizzy so i got out and sat down, i leaned down and rested my elbow down on my leg for about 10 seconds and when i lifted my elbow off my leg there was those little broken blood essels evrywhere ( u know when u throw up to hard) i thought that maybe it was already there , so i put slight pressure on my other leg and the same thing happened to my other leg and on my arms. Also last night my legs were a little reddish /blue color so i rubbed them and they went back to normal color for about 3 minuets but then they went back to red/blue again.......I have been told i have PVC but taking medicine would be worse... Also i have had a hard time with Anemia scince i was 14 my body seems to not absorb iron. I take two 60mg ferrous sulfate a day along with vitamin C but nothing has seemed to help my doctors always seem to portpone everything like "next week" or little things and nothing ever gets done. I hae to get it checked every three weeks. One doctor aske me how i was still standing he said, i had virtually no iron in my body. I found out my grandma and 3 aunts have to get b-12 shots because they hae a problem with anemia. I hopefully will get answers with my new doctor, my previous insurance i didnt seem the same doctor more than twice. Could this be syptoms of anemia because they seem pretty extreme and im really getting worried???aNY IDEAS?????

Hi wesley rachelle,
I think you should be seen and all the proper tests and a physical examination done. If anemia runs in your family which too can mean other disease processes will be all the more reason to find one Dr. you feel comfortable with who can follow you for some time to best treat this. Hopefully your insurance will allow this soon.
