Heart Rate

[Anne52]

Ever since i had the flu right after xmas i have been have fluttering in my chest and flu vaccine was given 11/30 and was told this could be caused by the vaccine and may cause arrythyma. Want to know if anyone has had this as i am i 70 yr ol female who always has been in good health as for my kidney disease which is stable and had for 15 years. Never getting this again as i had an EKG which was normal and a chest xray which was normal and having an holter monitor 24 hr done and an echo cardiogram done but cardiologist doesnt think there is issues s said my heart sounded fine

I am 68 and have been experiencing the same flutters in my chest I had the covid and the flu jab in October but this only started couple of weeks ago. I have Underactive Thyroid so don't know if it's related to that. Also anxiety and hormones could be responsible.

I get this flutters in chest had ECG nothing said my heart was good I am 63 how often do you get it ? Doc said its Anxiety but I feel OK now strange .I've been on betablocker for 13 yrs but I still get them.

I get it on and off for a few weeks now I do take Sertraline antidepressant but still getting them. I also have cold feeling on left side of scalp I had Mri head scan and it was OK. So they are putting it down to anxiety aswell. Can't understand it because I'm not worried about anything to be anxious. I do have Ibs diarrhoea it has been bad today too. Wish I could enjoy my retirement 😪 x

I havnt really been to Gp about it I will have to ring them I've researched it and it doesn't seem to be harmful so I thought it might wear off.I have been put on another Hrt tablet so I hope it helps with my hormones.
