Heart palpitations, or anxiety or something else
Posted , 5 users are following.
I've been dealing with palpitations for a while now. They have me on a beta blocker, I am also on lisinopril (HBP) lexapro and supposed to take buspar. I noticed when I was taking the buspar that my palpitations increased by 10 fold. Wore a Holter for 24 hours. Never heard back from cardiologist. He said if he found anything he would call. So assuming he hasn't found anything. I stopped the buspar last weekend and had no palps. So I went without it all week, but the tension and anxiety started creeping back in. So I took one yesterday morning and was okay...only a couple palpitations. Well I haven't had one today, and I've had what feels like palps all morning. The last round I put my fingers to my throat to feel my pulse as they were happening and there were absolutely no changes in my pulse rate, no hiccups or nothing. I am also on vitamin c, b12, coq10, vit e and vit d all of which are supposed to help with palps. So my question is this... are these heart palpitations that I am having or could they be something else that feels like heart palps ? I feel like I'm going crazy and I HATE living like this. I have a 4 month old and I just want my life back to normal so I can enjoy her. Help.

Hi Sharon
I had this, if they say you are ok then believe them. That is the first step to take care of your stressing out about this. Once you have reduced your stress which in itself causes palpitations don't worry if they happen. We all get them, tv presenters, everyone. I also went to a naturopath and found I was low in magnesium which I take morning and evening, I found magnesium malate helps me. I also ate a lot of bananas which I found helped. But I now realise that I have a potassium problem and I take a very small quarter of a tablet in morning and evening and my palpitations and cramps have vanished. Watch your diet, sugar etc, saturated fat, eat lots of vegetables. TAurine also helps and Dr Sinatra has a fab website in the US and Facebook page. B12 methylcobalamin is best and vitamin D3 is good as well as ester C for the vitamin C. Also vit K2. So don't worry yourself about it. Mention your anxiety to the naturopath, perhaps you have low thyroid, you need T4 T3 and TSH tested.
