What Can Cause Rapid Heart Rate For Person Having High Blood Pressure, Weight Gain, Swelling?
I am frustrated over feeling bad!!Had breast cancer 2 1/2 years ago--double mastectomy, chemo for a year(her 2 positive) Now have high blood pressure, weight gain, swelling, dizziness when standing. Could I have a lymphatic problem? Thyroid checks ok. Tired all the time. Seeing cardiologist--have had corotid artery check and heart scan. Rapid heart rate. Any advice or ideas??Thank you!!( 66 yrs. old)
hi, you should have mentioned your heart rate...what you say can be a normal reading..!! or you mean to say you feel the heart beat? lymphatic issue generally doesnt cause increased heart rate.. what all medications you are taking.. if the heart scan and ecg are ok then you can rest assured.. if yo have got a no problem answer from both physician and cardiologist you should approach a psychiatrist..that would solve your problem..
hope my answer helps you if you have any more queries i would be happy to answer..
