I have been experiencing symptoms similar to a stomach flu for about 2 months, including diarrhea, nausea, lethargy, and sporadic dizzy spells that sometimes lead to panic and restlessness. My resting pulse increases to 100 bpm during these attacks, and I have noticed a 5 kg weight loss over the last month despite normal eating habits. I also feel permanently stressed, have depression and aggression, and have lost interest in activities I used to enjoy. My doctor suspects hyperthyroidism, but I don't have heat sensitivity. What other physical conditions could be causing these symptoms?

A nurse mentioned I had high velocity in my common femoral artery, is this something to be worried about? I also have a lesion on my posterior iliac bone that was told looks benign but to keep an eye on it. Would a lesion on the bone cause an increased arterial velocity?

I'm a 40-year-old female, non-smoker, non-drinker, and I take escitalopram for anxiety. I've had dizzy spells and fainting episodes after climbing stairs since last September. My echo was normal two years ago. I'm concerned about heart disease, heart failure, or pulmonary hypertension. Could my SSRI medication or COVID be causing these issues?
