Any one else suffered the same???
So for the last few days I have been having palpitations that have happened on and off throughout the day. It feels like a flutter from my breast bone all the way to my neck and throat. It doesn't hurt but it feels very unpleasant and puts me on edge. It also makes my teeth hurt too and makes me feel a little weak. I get so anxious when they happen and try and distract myself or take some breaths to get rid of them. They do settle for a bit sometimes but then they come back. I get like 2 in a row each time.
I suffered with them a couple of weeks ago and the GP told me to go to a and e. They did and ecg and blood tests and said it was fine and sent me on my way.
Now they've come on stronger.
Sounds like a classic case of anxiety. When your Anxious your heart sends out adrenaline which can speed up your heart rate and give you all kinds of symptoms.
apparently your heart is fine.
I know you've tried to use breathing to calm down you're hurt. But there's a great meditation that's very short I could really help you control this.
go to YouTube and search for "mindful breathing guided meditation 10 minutes".
it tells you the exact way to breathe when you're having anxiety or symptoms like rapid heart beat.
You see, the symptoms are not the problem. They are the result unmanaged anxiety.
when you get those symptoms, don't try to fight them off because they will get worse. You have to have a relaxed attitude like "this is OK. I can handle this and it will go away." Their way your brain will stay relaxed and not send out more adrenaline that causes the symptoms.
there are some great meditations are YouTube for anxiety, depression, sleep, overthinking, etc. they completely relax my mind body and symptoms.
remember that any symptoms caused by anxiety cannot hurt you or your heart or anything else. If you really struggle with this I would recommend speaking to a counselor. You are going to be fine ❤️
Hello!
Sorry your going through this but trust me your fine! ☺️ I’ve had heart palps now for a while and had loads of test including blood test and ecgs and all mine come back fine, I’m not back playing football again! Trust your doctors if they were the slightest problem they would tell you! Try exercising for 20 minutes a day I find this helps a lot! Hope you feel better soon! ☺️☺️
I've been having palpitations on and off for the past month. Some days it will even trigger a panic attack. I've had to call 911 a few times because I was so scared they lasted a lot longer and made me dizzy and short of breath. After having ekg, chest xray and blood work, they said I was fine so I am assuming these palpitations are due to anxiety. I have been under a lot of stress because of how I've been feeling so I think that's why I am having this issue.
Are you under any stress? If so, that can explain it.
