Hi errivbr4678778

I know what you are on about coz that's something I get too - it feels like a butterfly is trying to flutter about under my chest bones- doesn't half leave me breathless - don't really know what causes this but sure as hell would like if it stopped. Palpitations is the word that's used n is always associated with anxiety but don't worry it's nothing other than a reaction but if your worried about it just pop into your Docs n ask for a check up on your blood pressure n if that's okay 👌 then great x take care .

Hi errivbr46787

Yes I have been to the doctors and had to do what you did having a 24hr thing strapped in my arm to monitor blood pressure 😫kept bloody waking me up when I eventually did get to sleep cos it blew the arm cuff every half hour lol - got put on Propranolol for anxiety but had to take Losartan for high blood pressure- to be honest I also got co- codamol for pain and they actually helped more than anything to take the edge off Anxiety too. Just get the occasional flutter now but I do hope your BP is ok and if it's high then you'll get something to take to help regulate it . I don't exercise- but work gruesome 12hr shifts in a nursing home- now that's enough exercise to say it's like that CD bundle you get that totally cripples you lol ( just can't remember the name of it ) exercise does help though cos for one thing - when we're busy doing something- we don't have time to think about things eh .

I do hope you keep in touch n let me know how you are doing.

All the best ✌🏻
