    Hello, yes they suck ..I have had fluttering for about a month now ..had a long period too duirng all of it and sometimes I wake up and Wham.! I read in Christian Northup's menopause book that during peri meno  the sympathetic and parasymptatic nervous system flucuates quite a bit. I went to my doctor too to get reassurance about it also so don't feel strange about doing that either. I  am sure others will share thier experiences too!! hang in there!!

      Hi.

      I have had loads of palpitations last night. Heart racing and anxiety. My blood pressure shot up too which made me more anxious. So fed up with it. Horrible stage of life.

      Hope you feel better soon.

      Helen.

    Palpitations are rubbish. You can't take control of them, they control you! I have had them for a long time n do have tablets to take but try not to until I am desperate.
