Extra beats

[XxWil_91]

Does anyone ever find themselves relaxing and then all of a sudden your heart speeds up as if it’s adding many extra beats ..this has happened to me before and I’m usually fine afterward it only last a few seconds sometimes in the middle of a conversation I’m having ..kind of weird and scary wondering if anyone else gets this

[Krn210]

I have! I noticed that it happened more if I was feeling excitable.

[XxWil_91 in reply to Krn210]

Yes! But it’s weird there are other times I’m excited and nothing happens ..sometimes it happens when I lay down which I read that sometimes the body presses on the valgus nerve which is linked directly to the heart ..it panicks me a little after even though I’m usually fine

[Krn210 in reply to XxWil_91]

Yes! I know what you mean. Sometimes I am excitable and it doesn’t happen other times it does. Usually if I really think about it I had some trigger thought happen. Other times I think it’s just a residual effect from whatever my emotinal state was that day. Lol. That and I’m convinced that if it doesn’t happen for awhile it likes to just make a surprise appearance so you don’t forget about it. 😉

i am like that. tried that a lot even until now

[Worried-help]

Yes. I get this constantly. I can be relaxing and my heart will beat weirdly for a few seconds then back to normal again like nothing happened. If I'm laying down it makes me sit up fast and cough.

Yea!!! So weird happened to me yesterday while having a conversation and I had to stop and breath in

[Worried-help in reply to XxWil_91]

I don't know why that happens, it is weird. Makes me feel like my heart will stop, I get really scared. I have had echo exams and ekg's and everything has been normal.

[Worried-help in reply to XxWil_91]

Do you feel it all the time ?

[XxWil_91 in reply to Worried-help]

No not all the time it’s kind of hard to pinpoint it ..sometimes it’s random but I assure you your fine ..I’ve seen 2 cardiologist and they make it seem normal ..it is scary sometimes it even gets to me but don’t think about it too often ..I think subconsciously we can be stressed without realizing it

[Worried-help in reply to XxWil_91]

Yes you are right, I agree, we can stress ourselves out without realizing it.

[Worried-help in reply to XxWil_91]

How long have you had anxiety ?

[XxWil_91 in reply to Worried-help]

I’ve had it for years ..always thought I was just sick ..I didn’t realize what anxiety could do to the body but I’m slowly learning more and more ..I’ve come along way though it all comes

Down to acceptance

[Worried-help in reply to XxWil_91]

That's how it was for me, always felt ill until I learned from endless physical tests that my health is fine, so I did my research and came to find out its anxiety , never knew about it or thought it would give symptoms.

[XxWil_91]

Sometimes that’s what it takes ..the symptoms are so real though so it’s tough ..I’ve had setbacks but you have to keep enjoying life

[Ronig1234]

It’s super scary for me -but all normal hearts have weird beats -we are the lucky ones with anxiety that are super sensitive and feel everything!

[Hidden]

Yes loads of times ! It goes weird and beats weird then fast then back to normal ! Really scary

[Ronig1234]

Oh I forgot to add the lovely beats that feel like it’s skipping ! Beat - beat - skip

Beat -beat- skip -then I freak out and panic sets in and heart starts pounding furiously -such fun 🙄

[XxWil_91 in reply to Ronig1234]

Welcome to my life haha. Well we are always fine at the end it’s just hard not to think something is wrong . It always freaks me out when it happens but it subsides quick for me

[scottlayton35]

Yes me too. It feels to me like my heart jumps out of normal rhythm for a second or two and it takes my breath away. It happens once or twice a day and comes from nowhere. Ive had all the checks and i cycle everyday so i i am reassured in that respect but it still scares me. I just try and ignore it now.

[XxWil_91 in reply to scottlayton35]

Acceptance is key!
