Hello there lovely people,
as I mentioned in my first post on this forum, for about three years I have been having some symptoms that at times have been quite severe. At first my symptoms were simply and only skin issues on my hands, ankles and feet for about two years. Since I didn't get to the root of things back then, problems got worse. Since October of the last year, I have been having occasional panic attacks, episodes of feeling very nervous, uneasy, unwell, jittery - some of these acute attacks/episodes felt so severe and absolutely life-threatening, that I even got hospitalized once when I thought I was having a stroke, and visited the emergency station of my nearest hospital multiple times when I just generally felt like something wrong could happen.
These symptoms are sometimes accompanied with fluctuations in blood pressure, fast heart rate, subjectively feeling hyperglycemic after high carb meals, pressure or burning sensations in heart, just feeling weird and very uncomfortable, having perceptual changes as if I took drugs, feeling individual organs like my thyroid very clearly and strongly, and more. I also sometimes have symptoms like bloating, air in stomach, heart burn - symptoms that point to my digestive system. Note that many of these symptoms also most often occur, if they occur, about 30 minutes to an hour after meals, although not always (it is complicated as I had symptoms completely unrelated to eating and not directly after meals as well).
In an effort to understand my symptoms and what my body is trying to tell me, I went to multiple doctors and made different blood tests / tests in general. I will also be getting a gastroscopy in the near future. Anyways, that is for another time and place. In this thread, I simply wanted to ask for help in interpreting the blood work that has been done in the time since October. I was not able to specifically ask for the markers that were measured, the doctors decided on their own. I compiled all the blood tests and made them into one pdf, in chronological order. The doctors so far all said that the test results were normal, and I don't really know how to interpret these tests, what to look for, or what these results mean to a large degree. Is there anything that is noteworthy among these markers? Anything that is not normal and that could help me figuring out the root cause? And are there any markers you think would make sense to get tested, that weren't part of any of the tests?
Any help is appreciated! Thanks in advance!
p.s. The test results are all in German but hopefully most of the terms are similar enough for you to be able to make out the most important markers regardless. If not, I can translate. Some terms that are quite different in German are Natrium = Sodium, Kalium = Potassium, Eiweiß = Protein, Gesamteiweiß = Total Protein. I also attached the same pages that I put into the pdf as individual jpg-files, in case you don't like opening pdfs.
