Please answer this question as I am desperate and I just don't know what to do. Yesterday I started Zyban to hopefully stop smoking, but I know that won't stop them as I have stopped before for a couple of years.
Ectopic beats anxiety how to#
I have been told that they realise that I am getting them, but they are at a loss how to treat them, as beta-blockers are not that much help. I had a baby at 39 and during my pregnancy I don't recall getting that many palpitations or any that troubled me. I know I must be driving my GP round the bend, but I have never known anything so distressing as these. When I got home an hour later I had started my period – I get the ectopic beats occasionally through the month, but mostly the 10 days before my period. I was told it was fine, although the nurse who did the test said she saw a couple on the monitor.
I had a really bad episode yesterday and had to have another ECG. My doctor has recently noticed a possible link between my worst episodes and my monthly period, so he is trying me on oestrogen 1.25mg a day, which does not seem to be helping. I have seen counsellors, cognitive behavioural specialists – I have tried everything. Keep us updated.I am 42 and for the last seven years I have suffered with benign ectopic heartbeats.Ī specialist, who gave me a 24-hour machine to wear, has examined me at my hospital. It put me at easo so much and now I can handle the palpitations although its never nice. I asked if all of these skipped and fast heartbeats were causing damaged to my heart and he explained that the heart is one of the strongest muscles in our body and can cope with severe rushes of adrenaline and fear, which is what we experience during anxiety. He said the palpitations and missed heartbeats are actually a very common thing and nothing to worry about in most cases, and with regards to my 130BPM, the only time he would worry is if it stays that way and never drops down. I recorded a few instances but when I sat with the consultant he told me my heart was fine and healthy. I had ECGs which came up fine and had to carry a heart monitor around for a month. During my panic attacks my heart went to 130BPM and I would experience my heart stopping and would have to jolt upright and inhale quickly to feel like I was getting it started again. My heart genuinely feels like its momentarly stopping for a split second then starting back up and i get hot and dizzy! shes convinced theres nothing serious im not.Ĭan this happen? i know i go on and on on my blogs about this but its worrying me there is something really bad wrong and they havnt seen it Its doing my head in as i have these symptoms even when im not even worrying, so if it is my anxiety as they say how is that happening? I cant stop thinking about this, what if their wrong? is there something dangerous causing this? have they missed something? Im worried, i think theyve missed something and i have a heart defect, she doesnt as shes saying if i had any issues with my heart it would be there all the time, it would show up on an ecg, and it would show up on blood tests as the heart releases emsymes into the blood! Shes now come to the conculsion im suffering from ectopic heartbeats and im having a monitor fitted sometime before june! I had to go back the next day and have a suger and thyroid blood test, which i did they both came back normal. Had the ecg done she said it was fine all regular and normal and strong, and my pulse had come down from 135 to 95bpm. wasnt aloud home until i had and ecg, bacause i told her id been having more skipped heart beats, (although it feels like my heart is stopping and starting) dr examined me blood pressure and pulse were both high. Ive had a mad few days, went to the surgery the other moring coz i could feel my anxiety coming back on.
