Fast heart rate
Posted , 3 users are following.
Hello everyone . I have always been a very nervous person and have panic attacks, usually heart related. I have had test done and all that was found was PVC's which they tell me won't kill me lol while working outside yesterday i could feel my heart beating really hard.I came in and used my pulse meter, something i should never do, and my heart rate was 126. That of course, set me on a down hill spiral . My rate did come down after resting, I find now , by wearing the meter, that even walking to the kitchen my rate goes up to 100. Now i am scared to do anything. Is this increase in rate "normal" What is everyones resting, activity rate ? I do have COPD which, i'm sure, makes it worse

Hang in there, earlier this year I also developed pvc's and at first, my rate would increase just by taking a few steps. When I go on a walk and climb a hill, my heart feels as though it's going to jump out of my chest. When on a treadmill, my rate can go up 145-150 (according to the treadmill) this is a cardio excercise rate.
On top of that, I would feel brief one second symptoms on left / right chest area including my left side. Have zero idea what to make of all this as it just came on suddenly (one night). I am not a nervous person and it still worries me when I feel something or the beat feels slightly different, etc.
I told my doctor everything I encountered and nothing has scared him.

I hate this anxiety so much. I was so bad today i even kept the monitor on when i did dish's and went to the bathroom. Each time my rate went up but came right back down when i sat down. I'm going to drive myself, and hubby, crazy lol

It does get better, especially if you keep occupied. I never purchased a wrist monitor, purchased one of those pulse oxygen finger sensors. Few times I had a run of multiple pvc's, that will wake you up. Stopped drinking any caffeine, don't think it helped. My sleeping pattern is awful, used to get 8 hours no problem. Even purchased a sleep monitor pad to monitor rate and breaths, noticed I get no deep slow now. At night, in bed, if I raise my hand high above my head, get this weird pulsing / tingle in fingertips. The only positive is people have much worse symptoms. Sadly, nowadays for a doctor to care you really need a event to happen.
Doctor said a lot of skinny people feel their heart beat. Like I have always experienced this. Cardiologist cannot explain my constant feeling of beats, even when 60bpm. Also makes one feel warm and fuzzy, lol.
