Hello My name is Cait and I am a 29 year old female. I am married with a 2.5 year old daughter and have recently been diagnosed with Dysautonomia. I am very scared as I experience many symptoms that keep me from functioning almost daily, I also suffer from GAD, Panic Disorder, and Health Anxiety. For months I have been dealing with unexplained dizziness, palpitations, high heart rates, excessive urination, headaches, nausea, night sweats, etc. I don't even know where to start to be honest. I have had every test done known to mankind and almost all have come back normal with the exception of a low Magnesium level once that has since been corrected. My Cardiologist and PCP both seem to think that I have a type of Autonomic dysfunction but since they have very little knowledge on the subject they are unable to tell me what kind. I live in NJ and am extremely scared especially with having such a young child without any real answers. I don't know when to go to the ER or how to discern my symptoms from emergent to non emergent. I feel very lost. I was able to find an EP that specializes in Dysautonomia but the earliest available appointment is not for almost 2 months. I don't know how to deal at the moment. Please if anyone can help or provide any information or advice I would greatly appreciate it. I sit here so often wondering if the doctors are missing something. Thank you
