I Have Degenerative Spinal Arthritis In December 2015 It Got

I have degenerative spinal arthritis in December 2015 it got worse and I was bedridden for 2 weeks. One night I had a heart attack Jan 9 of this year, released went home and had another heart attack within 6 hours. I was released again 4 days later. Since the second heart attack I have been getting sicker. Trouble eating, after I eat most foods I develop severe chest pain which sent us back to ER over and over. my heart is ok, as per chemical stress test. Now I have hyperthyroidism, swelling in neck, chest and shoulders. Blood test shows possibly lupus, MRI shows my spinal cord is closing. My hands go numb, legs and feet numb when I walk. Other than a bad back in December. I was healthy, now it's getting harder to walk, eat, trouble swallowing, stomach distended, trouble having bowel movements (medication side effect) shortness of breath, joint pain, chest pain, shoulders and chest still swollen after steroids. Doctors do not know what is wrong, keep finding things, messenger if artery is 70% clogged but they say that is ok. They think I have lupus, reumatoid arthritis. And some blood disease. I have 7 doctors and no one can figure it out. I drink almond milk and eat rice and rice cereal. Now developing vitamin deficiency and been getting sicker. Since Jan.
