Hi I have been struggling with shortness of breath for a while.
Now I don't know if I'm worrying about nothing, because I have been through the works. I was struggling with breathlessness before I had my gallbladder removed, and they checked that I was all healthy for the operation, so I'm trying to not get worried as the operation was only 4 weeks ago.
Leading up to the surgery getting around was difficult as I would become breathless and nauseous, I'd feel unwell and generally crap.
Now with the gallbladder removed I have more energy, way less nausea, much more sensitive to insulin, but i find that I'm still getting breathless with walking, and I'm slow, like old lady slow, I'm 37, and I keep trying to move faster but my legs have a heavy feeling and I begin to struggle.
I don't know if it's because I've been unwell and lost my fitness, but it was only in November 2022 that I lost my job, and I was really active at my job. I don't know, I'm just worried about something being hidden. They did a ECG before the surgery and all was fine, so I don't know, but heart disease is rampant in my family.
Any advice, reassurance much appreciated.
Thank you
