I'd rather hear this from patients going through this instead of a doctor.

Everything you described is what I experience and have experienced. I have frequently suffered with respiratory problems (asthma, bronchitis, pneumonia) since childhood. I was diagnosed with fibromyalgia, anxiety/panic disorder and high blood pressure in 2000. Thereafter I began experiencing a variety of symptoms like heart palpitations, muscle spasms/strains, joint aches, fevers, hair loss and extreme fatigue. I had a total hysterectomy in 2012. It seems like my symptoms worsened after that. In 2016 I was diagnosed with RA and last year I was diagnosed with lupus. Finally I'm getting the help I need through the right physicians.
