Hart palpations

[scared24]

I have had bad exiety all week. Today is October 1st and I'm having hart palpations and have had a hard time figuring out why I'm having this and I wish it would go away

Sounds lame but I always say check with your dr first to make sure it's nothing. Having said that, according to you it's probably just anxiety but get it checked out so you can feel ok. That's important and always makes you feel better. but yes, anxiety can also cause a feeling of heart palpitations.

Ok I will talk to my dr who prescribed my exiety meds

Palpitations are a really common symptom of anxiety they won't do you any harm Your heart is a really strong organ it won't stop or be damaged just because it's beating fast

Try to stop the fear of them and they will stop

Please don't worry they are perfectly normal and harmless

I have a heart condition so I'm not just saying these things

Take lots of care lots of relaxation If you lie down and deep breathe for half an hour your heart rate will come right down When it does it will reassure you everything is fine and normal

Good luck

Ok I will try that

I would definitely get checked by a professional as this could easily be confused with anxiety symptoms true but also can be aFib so yes do go see a cardiologist.

I will do that if it happens again

[Cat33 in reply to scared24]

Yes sorry I thought you had been checked over so yes do see a doctor if you are worried but then if all normal don't worry

[scared24 in reply to Cat33]

Ok I will do that thanks for your advice

[Cat33]

I hope you feel better and more at peace very soon

Try not to worry I doubt very much that is a serious problem I hope your doctor will reassure you

Take good care of yorself x

Thanks I apriciate your support. I am just worried because it hurts when it happens. I do have bad anxiety and I also suffer fro Post traumatic stress disorder so I think it is a combination of both

[Cat33 in reply to scared24]

Sounds like you are really suffering I do sympathise

Have you seen your doctor about it ?

When I got rushed into hospital it was because I had severe chest pains that felt like I was being squeezed the pain was in the middle of my chest and took my breath away it was very severe

It wasn't happening all the time and not with palpitations

Go and get checked out then you will know if it's anxiety and you can work on that to recover

Take care x
