Posted , 2 users are following.
am 50 years old and and am constantly short of breath with resting pulse rate of 100 .went to the doctors yesterday said my pulse was high and fast heart beat advised x ray which has been done and results avavlibel in one week and waiting for appoitment for ecg ( i think thats what she said ).suffer from anxciety and depression and history of alcholl abuse which peaked in april.had several benders in a short space of time where i drank my self silly and rarely slept and didnt eat properly.since then on seprate occasions i have fainted , had a fever with upper back pain and now constant rapid beat which i am totally aware of all the time also no energy constantly tired and short of breath. my anxcity makes we worry about troubling the doctors and live on my own with 2 children and havent seeked help in the past because i worry who will look after them if i have to go into hospital. ive also noticed a marked increase increase in urine production even though i am on slow release meds for my bladder. i have addressed my allcholl intake and have been steadly reducing but fear my long standing abuse has damaged my heart and wondeering how am gona manage until further tests are done.sorry new to these forums thanks for reading,

No. It's never too late. I think , I'm probably living proof of that. I still have age related problems , but they aren't as bad as the heart problems I use to have. But I know the lonely feeling all to well. Just remember , you're not alone , and there are a lot of people out there worse off than you. It took me a long time to actually realize that. But once I accepted that , I started feeling kinda lucky. If that makes any sense. Anyway , my prayers are with you. So post here and let people know how you're doing.
