So here's my background
45
In good shape, workout, eat clean,
No family history of heart disease, heart attacks or cancer
Parents in mid 70s, clean bill of health
I can work out like a savage and not gas out, still have energy
My heart rate also returns to normal in 2 minutes
BP is normal at 105/71
Cholesterol is Normal
I have suffered from panic/anxiety for the last year
Just taking a lot on
and also having been sleeping the best
SO i know that causes inflammation of the GI tract
and this can irrirtate vagus nerve and that's connected to the heart and blah blah blah
SO I get these ectopics, mostly extra beats that are sometimes painful in mid of chest, just for 1 sec
I notice I ge tthem when I'm stressed or anxious or haven't slept well.
NO other symptoms
Curious if anyone else get these when anxious or stressed?
I guess I should try to relax/calm my mind more and don't try to focus on them as sometimes I 'm like when will I get another one and I think that becomes a self fulfilling prophecy? Not like in a scared way. I'm a tough SOB just like come on bring it on! but when I just live my life, in my body they disappear.
So I think there is a mind, gut, heart, body connection but just wanted to hear your experience and opinion. Thanks
