So today I had heart palpitations for the first time. Not sure if it’s related to Lexapro or not...waiting for my doc to call back. Scared the hell out of me. My first instinct was “I’m having a heart attack I need to go to the hospital” since my anxiety is about my health and thinking there is something wrong with my heart this didn’t really go over well. They have stopped and I have calmed down but it’s just getting to be too much. Constantly scared. I’m going to ask my doc to recommend a cardiologist to rule out anything to do with my heart. Can’t wait for this Lexapro to start working. Tomorrow is day 7 since I started it.
