Anyone know of a disorder (or has the same problem) related to: if it gets above 80-85 degrees outside (and I'm in the heat), my arms and legs get weak, I get dizziness and somewhat confused? I currently take beta-blockers for mitral valve prolapse.

My doctor has little to say about the sensitivity to heat. But it's a big drag.

I have tried supplements and diet changes, but with limited results. This condition is tiresome and can be detrimental to your daily activities.

Impression Reading is: Suspected small shallow free disc hernitation on the right at L-3-4 extending posterior to the L3 vertebral body causing mild right neural foraminal narrowing of uncertain clinical consequence. Disc desiccation most pronounced at L-2-3 and L5-S1. Tarlov cysts at the S1 and S2 levels of doubtful consequence. I am really disappointed in my Md because he did not go over any of this with me, his nurse just called and said I need to be referred to a back doctor. I am also a nurse and wonder if I need to see a neurosurgen instead? Please help me>

I was diagnosed with hyperthyroidism at age 18 and had a thyroidectomy (due to an enlarged gland) in Aug '04. Now I am on synthroid for the rest of my life and am living with hypothyroidism. Also, I was diagnosed with SVT (supraventricular tachycardia) in 2005 and had a cather albation in November '05. On January 31, 2007 I ended up in the ER with bad chills, a fever of 102, and unvoluntary jerking of my left arm and both feet. All of my tests came back negative and they couldn't find anything and diagnosed me with a viral syndrome. Ever since then, I've been having many more symptoms and numerous trips to the ER. I have sharp chest pain that comes and goes, upper adbominal pain, dizziness, insomina at times, fatigue, severe loss of appetite. I have lost 15 pounds in the last 12 days and I recently went to the ER a few days ago and was diagnosed with dyspnea. All my tests and chest x ray came back negative. The doctors don't know whats wrong with me! Pls help me out!

I'm doing a presentation on it, and I can't seem to find out the reasons why it's called like that. Sure, I know its mechanism, symptoms, etc., but why is the infarction compared to an attack, besides feeling like one?
Any answers with sources are welcome.

Having been diagnosed with white coat syndrome, the doctor suggests a nuclear stress test. Being trapped in a doctor's office, where blood pressure readings are highest doesn't seem to be an answer to lowering blood pressure readings. Readings out of the doctor's office, including the blood bank, are in normal range. Why is a nuclear stress test indicated. An echocardiogram was done earlier upon which the cardiologist diagnosed white coat syndrome.
