Tachycardic 24/7

[Ab2009]

I have fast heart beat for the last 3 days without stopping, is this normal?

All body shakes, more like light tremor and lots of pain in my upper tights and in limb muscles/ or bones, not sure!

Anxiety and that ugly feeling does not leave me for a minute!

Is it my heart or just one of symptoms of anxiety, anybody experience the same?

Tried to ignore it but it started to worry so so much!

Take your pulse and BP then reply what you get

[Ab2009 in reply to kevoreally]

[kevoreally in reply to Ab2009]

If it gets worse or you feelworse call an ambulance

[Ab2009 in reply to kevoreally]

Thank you so much! Now in bed trying to calm down 🌟

[Agora1 in reply to Ab2009]

Ab2009, If it is staying that high, you should at least call your doctor. He may advise you to take something to calm your body down. xx

[Ab2009 in reply to Agora1]

Agora1/"Keep Moving"-thank you very much!

Now when resting it is 142/89 bp 68 but will see doctor tomorrow!

That is something new to me- another set back!

Probably it is time for medication, was avoiding everything so far!

[Agora1 in reply to Ab2009]

I'm glad to hear you are seeing your doctor tomorrow.

Medication isn't the worst thing....at least it will give you a break. It's the best thing I ever did. I feel so much better now. Good Luck tomorrow, let us know how you do. xx

I would think a beta blocker such as Metoprolol 25mg would help you and possibly help your anxiety also, but again see a doctor

[Agora1 in reply to ironmick883]

ironmick883, I'm on it. For me it's been a miracle drug both with blood pressure and anxiety. x

[Crystal81 in reply to Agora1]

Agora1, What if you don’t mind me asking what you take ? I’m about to start zoloft 25mg . I don’t want to but I’m always at an anxious stat and fear of dying and I gets ten times worse near and during my monthly Woman hood.

[Agora1 in reply to Crystal81]

Hi Crystal81, I've been off Benzos for over 3,000 days (still counting) but I'm on still on Lexapro. I'm also on Metoprolol for blood pressure, Cartia for my A-Fib. It took a lot of trial and error to come down to these meds as well as dosages. x

[ironmick883 in reply to Crystal81]

I have been on Zoloft since 2005.. 200mg since 2009

[Delzek in reply to Ab2009]

Diastolic 172 is very high

Systolic 104 again high

Bmp 77 is within normal stats. TBH if your Diastolic and Systolic is that high you need to see the DR as they are both worrying.

I was in hospital the other week because of similar readings ,I have panic attacks my heart beat was 102 dia was 172 syst was 104 the hospital wanted to keep me in for observation but I had to go out as hospital's make me feel worse

[Ab2009 in reply to Delzek]

Thank you for your reply!

I am sitting and waiting to see dr now, feel even worse this morning and let’s see what he will say x

[ironmick883]

well you pulse seems fine to me, the blood pressure is a little high though, but anxiety definitely can cause that, i just went through a situation where i had the stomach bug, my heart rate stayed 110-120 for a whole day, just from that, and had to have re assurance, sure enough, Doctors told me not to worry at all about it.

[Ab2009 in reply to ironmick883]

I thought it was anxiety past days but is completely new feeling hence I decided to measure bp! Let’s what doctor will tell in a few minutes!

[Aliciar]

Hope you find answers anxiety can be so horrible

[Thkdiffgirl]

Seems like your heart bpm is fine and your bp is a little high. Of course you should always seek medical help if ypu dont feel good. But, I have had years of sporadic high heart rates beacuse of anxiety , like upto 130 bom while resting and really high bp! After all kinds of test , its anxiety and acid reflux :/ breath in/ out of your stomach like 10 times in a row. Think of good things and tell yourself you are okay, that helps me tremendously . Anxiety attacks are no fun, dont panic, it will soon go away. ...if its an anxiety attack. Happy thanksgiving !

[Ab2009 in reply to Thkdiffgirl]

Thkdiffgirl- Very grateful for your words, I will practise it! Hope it is not a heart in the end x

[Ab2009]

Thank you so much for your reply and support, it means so so much to me!

It is amazing how doctors are treating us differently, I was told by my doctor not to worry at all, hopefully he understood what is the problem as I was crying all the time, I promised myself I wouldn’t but ... He said he will monitor my blood pressure for 24 hours but I have to wait for that monitor, it might take a few weeks, that is not right in my opinion!

Finally I will start taking medication, Citalopram, I welcome it now as anxiety was breaking me slowly!

I feel even worse now, as I have just put my little dog down 😰

[Agora1 in reply to Ab2009]

I'm so sorry Ab2009 about your little dog. The hurt is incredible I know and can be contributing to your physical symptoms without a doubt. I went through that loss with my beautiful German Shepherd Brandy many years ago. It still brings a tear to my eyes but a smile in my heart when I think of her. Grieve in your own way in your own time. xx

[Ab2009 in reply to Agora1]

Thank you so much Agora1, you are always here for everybody, our angel!

It is hard but we shall learn to live with it eventually! Lots of love! Take care 🙏
