hi
i get these all the time now. they stopped for about 8 months and i thought great this part is over. January this year them came back, worse than ever, and like you they cause me so much anxiety I can't ignore them anymore and sure enough went to the doctor and I had a UTI. The palps are so bothersome but I keep trying calm myself saying it's hormones. But sometimes you just have to get it checked and now this UTI. I don't know if I'm coming or going these days, i wish it would stop.

Yes. It would pound like crazy for no reason. I wasn't even anxious, but they make you anxious! I was seeing a Dr who put me on anxiety meds and it would still pound like crazy. He had no idea why, and neither did my naturopath after I quit the meds. It was the hormones! It has stopped since I started taking bio-identical estrogen.

You don't happen to have hypothyroidism (under active thyroid) do you?
Whenever I am taking even just slightly too much thyroxine I get palpitations and don't like it at all.

No I don't take anything for thyroid. But I also have not had it checked. I plan to get a complete profile and of hormones soon. I take an over the counter progesterone cream. But the nurse practitioner told me that couldn't possibly be of any benefit. But I think there is benefit.

Hi I have then too.I can hear it mainly at night pounding then it calms down..I had this like you a long time I think that's what brings on Anxiety and maybe other few symptoms if it was only hot flushes we would be fine.
