If there is bleeding you must see a doctor. preferably a gastroenterologist.

Bleeding of any kind is a GI / Dr visit. Anxiety can easily be the cause of heart rythm changes.. Stress.. And bad gas and bloating. But get it all checked out first. Diet can make a big difference. I personally lately have had very bad bloating that I think leads to both breathing and in turn heart rate issues. So your not alone but go get it checked.

Morning Yes ur right I have high anxiety plus possibly peri menopause. Periods been everywhere lately which always start my anxiety off . Had lots of bloods done and was all ok apart from low vit d . But this hard bloating feeling is horrible and missed beats . I read gut and brain are connected . X

They are 100 percent connected. Gut and brain. More than I think any of us can imagine.

Any symptoms that you are concerned about need to be discussed with a doctor in the first instance. These missed or fast beats that you are getting may be trapped gas exploding into your oesophagus. You can check this by taking your pulse in your neck at the same time, but it is always best to discuss any issues with a doctor.
