Do any of you experience exercise intolerance?? I have always had a fast heart, which slows at rest (unless I'm super anxious), but I have found if I do ANY type of exercise, even for 2 minutes, my heart rate skyrockets to 140-160 instantly and I am completely short of breath. I have also found that my blood pressure goes WAY up during this time as well. Even if I just climb a flight of stairs. I had a stress test done a couple years ago, which came back ok...but it still scares me. Would anxiety cause this to happen? Or do you think I need to ask the doctor for further work up? I'm almost 30, not overweight, but I don't think I should feel THAT out of shape...
