Hello!

Welcome to 'Ask A Doctor service'!

I understand your concern and would explain that your symptoms could be related to a metabolic disorder.

For this reason, I recommend consulting with your attending physician for a physical exam and some tests:

-a resting ECG and a cardiac ultrasound
-a chest X ray study
- complete blood count for anemia
- blood electrolytes for any possible imbalances
- vitamin D and vitamin B12 plasma levels for possible deficiency
- kidney and liver function tests
- thyroid hormone levels for thyroid gland dysfunction
- cortisol plasma levels for possible adrenal gland dysfunction.

You should discuss with your doctor on the above tests.

Hope to have been helpful!

If you have any other questions, please don't hesitate to ask me again!

Kind regards,

Dr. Iliri
