Heart loop recorder.

Do as most know from previous posts I have myocarditis. I won't mention the cause again.

So after 6 months I still feel exhausted and still get chest pains and palpitations.

Recently I was sitting in my car waiting for my partner when I suddenly got like a full electric shock sensation throughout body and felt dizzy. My watch said heart rate was 77 and after a couple of minutes I felt fine.

Has anyone else had this kind of sensation that was heart related.

I had a follow up appointment with my cardiologist that evening who now wants to implant a loop recorder due to the palpitations and has said that the shock sensation could be paroxysmal arrhythmia, due to mild scarring on left ventricle.

Has anyone else had similar experience or experienced any problems due to mild scar tissue?

Many thanks.
