HI everyone. Well, as some of you may know, I have been dealing with some heart problems and fainting spells lately. I have had a bunch of testing done and was sent today to an endocrinologist. He thinks that I may have a slow growing and rare form of cancer call carcinoid. I am 29 years old and FREAKING OUT! I am scared to death to say the least. He has drawn more blood and I have a urine test he's running and I'll find out next week. Please keep me in you thoughts and prayers as I believe that positive energy yields positive results (meaning no cancer.)

Leah; hang in there. Praying for you. Let us know how it goes. Is fainting and leaky valve/heart a symptom of cancer.Carcinoid(sp)? Please let me know. Take care and rest easy this weekend. ((hugs)) Sue

Thanks for the prayers. Yes, heart problems and fainting are signs of Carcinoid. So is flushing, (which is like a hot flash) and feeling shaky. I will keep you all posted. I talked to one of my doctors yeaterday and he says that he is pretty sure I have Carcinoid Cancer. Let's hope he's wrong. Be in touch.

You have me worried girl! I'm glad I'm going to the doctors on Thursday! I've got all the same symptoms you had - fainting, hot flushes, dizziness!
