You may acid reflux. Does it come on after eating? Gas can cause these symptoms , or an overzealous workout.

Be ure to stretch well before workouts Johnnie. It is most likely something simple. Maybe you need a good vitamin supplement for a ittle extra magnesium.

Relax, be sure to chew your food well and no more stressing, You are all good!

Quite often, or so the hospital told me at the time, most patients who go to A and E thinking they are having a heart attack are actually experiencing something called ?Costocondritis. It is inflammation of the muscular skeleton ....ribcage.....maybe you've been over stretching or something or lying too long on one side.....it is extremely painful and can take quite a while to settle Down, but rub some Feledene gel or similar in and it helps.

Just a thought.

Are you talking about palpitations ?...you can get them when you are anxious....take your pulse(wrist) when you get them, see if you have an irregular heartbeat.

Sometimes you can get that if you take certain pills...or substances...I would say to go get checked out by your GP.

GOOD LUCK

Your rapid heartbeat is probably caused by your anxiety...it's a vicious circle...I used to get irregular heartbeats, had all the tests etc..nothing wrong....then my son was diagnosed with Iron overload (GH) This is when the body can't get rid of iron it cannot use, it can cause heart Arrythmia ...the condition is genetically inherited usually, but can be got from transfusions....why not ask your GP for a Ferritin blood test, there are so many people who have GH and don't know it ,also most doctors know very little about it.

But I think it's more likely anxiety in your case.

Get your blood pressure checked out too.

Try not to worry, you'll be fine.

Not what you're looking for?
