stress or arrhythmia

4 Replies

We have been asked by a journalist for a national newspaper if anybody has been diagnosed with stress or anxiety, to be later told that it is a heart rhythm disorder.

Unfortunately, we are on a tight deadline, and need a response by Tomorrow (Friday) morning.

If you have a story that you would like to share, please do not hesitate in contacting me by email on info@heartrhythmalliance.org

Looks like I'm too late. I was initially told I had anxiety and depression and given antidepressants. This was roughly a year ago. The end of October, I was admitted to hospital with an enlarged heart/heart failure and that's when the AF was diagnosed.
