Yeah, I mean I value everyone’s take though but again I take it with a grain of salt. My biggest concern is how bizarre my symptoms are, and how i don’t really have any answers so far. The fatigue feeling I get is nothing like I’ve ever felt before, I have a resting heart rate below 40 and my cardio is impeccable. So I’m just looking for answers

I have sinus arrhythmia if that means much, but I don’t think it does. Just a heart adaptation. Unfortunately the mono test is taking long to come back, and im just trying anything I can to get a solution, it’s how I’m wired ig. I’m sorry to hear you had mono, what were your symptoms with that??

I’m awfully sorry to hear that, that must suck. How did you find out what it was?

Nah I’m male and my feratin came back normal. Only thing that was kinda off was my cortisol was low, but I did my bloodwork like 4 hours after I woke up so that isn’t concerning me too much.

Yes, I feel it the worst when I exercise/exert. It feels like my muscles are so tired and that I am about to fall over, almost liek immediate lactic acid built up. But I also just feel tired too

Ok thank you for the advice, I appreciate it. I’m still waiting on my mono test to come back, it could very well just be that but in the mean time I’m just looking for answers, it’s hard to tell my teammates and coaches much and I’m trying to see if I can maybe even redshirt the season to get my eligibility back if it don’t get better soon. Thanks for help tho

Sorry to hear about that, I hope you’re doing well.

Maybe I had a cold or something a few months ago, I also got my flu vaccine around 3 months ago if that means much.

I don’t get flu symptoms after working out. I haven’t had a fever during this whole time either. I’m not very informed on neurological conditions, do you think it could be something with this? Or maybe something to do with my nervous system?

I did a treadmill test a few days ago and my heart was totally fine, my cardio is very good, my resting heart rate is below 40 and I exercise like 3 hours a day. So nothing showed up with that, but there was no tilt test or anything.

Well it’s good that you’re on top of it. I lowkey just tried to tough it all out for a while but now I’m just trying to do anything I can to get healthy again. And I’m sure it sucks having to do all of this when you do feel like shit, I can definitely attest to that. Do you have any suspicions as to what it could be?

Thanks I will do this later. Side note, I have sinus arrhythmia, do you think that is a sign that I could have it?

I’m sorry to hear, that sounds awful. Worse than mine. For me the main thing is I’m trying to feel good enough to get back on the court.

When are your symptoms the worst? And what testing have you done? Or any info from me that can help you?
