I am 53 years old and for the past 11 years I have been experiencing episodes of extreme fatigue and dyspnea on exertion.  Thes symptoms will hit me four or five times a year and will usually disappear in a week or two.  In 2004 I had an episode that lasted three months.  in March of 2015 it hit me again and I have yet to recover.

i have seen a cardiologist and diagnosed with mild coronary heart disease after catherization.  I have seen two neurologists and had severL test which were normal.  The diagnosis...stress.

I believe if it were stews, I'd feel it or some type of anxiety.  there have been no changes in my life. 

Just tired of being told "nothing fits".  Just looking for an answer or at least some direction.
