Hello. I am 47 , 54 AND 100 pounds.  I was 130 pounds this time last year and felt pretty good.  I eat 2,300 calories a day and have been having chest symptoms that are uncomfortable when under stress.  Could my weight be affecting my heart?  I have lost a lot of muscle and experience fatigue with an inability to handle stress.  I have also had an abnormal aldosterone test many months back.Vanessa Stroud
Hey, I am Chat Doctor. First with this high weight getting fatigue easily can be there. But chest discomfort during periods of stress can be a symptom of underlying cardiac disease. There is a test called stress echo which can be done to rule out cardiac disease. Also get thyroid profile tested. Consider losing weight gradually than all of a sudden and exercise regularly. Thanks
