Week 9 - and I’ve encountered some problems

[Michrun]

I completed week 8 last week and felt fine. However for the last two days I’ve had a fluttery anxious feeling in my chest, and when I’m just sitting resting my heart rate suddenly shoots up for no reason!

Despite this I decided to attempt week 9 early this morning. Prepped well with hydration, half a banana, stretches etc, and went really slow,, but couldn’t make it much past 5 mins. My chest felt tight and I was gasping for air. Not sure if it is the heat or lockdown getting to me or something more serious ☹️. Very disappointed with today though! Going to have two more days rest and try again Wednesday...

Might be worth getting checked out by your GP before you go out again.

I’ve had this before some time ago - worth getting checked by your GP. I had to wear a heart monitor for a day. Turned out to be nothing serious, think it was just due to stress. That wouldn’t be surprising at the moment!

Get in touch with your GP immediately so that they can assess and either treat you or reassure you.
