Hi just wondering if anyone else has experienced this, i recently had a 7 day heart monitor which showed nothing other than an episode of sinus tachycardia is that an abnormality to be worried about ive had multiple tests over the last few years such as echo, ecgs, xrays, bloods all fine im a 29 year old female otherwise ok have random episodes of fast heartbeat and missed beats think its being put down to stress. Also i can see my pulse in my throat and neck constantly sometimes harder than others is this normal?

    I've been in the same situation. And you can do a hundred test but you're always going to feel like you need just one more. Where does it end? I still have issues with panic attacks but generally I have less anxiety and have lowered my heart rate due to multiple methods. Which include exercise, low sugar low caffeine Diet. I had to slowly build my confidence to exercise and I'm still working on that. Just start small with what you feel comfortable with and then you're going to start feeling more and more confident.

      I have been having heart palpitations (PVC) for over 8 months. I've been very anxious since one of episodes when my heart rate raised and I had a mini black-out. 

      All I can think of is how to stop my heart palpitations because I'm very scared of them. My blood tests were all normal. My Serum Magnesium and Calcium are in normal range. The cardiologist said everything is normal and prescribed me beta-blocker medication. I really don't want to go on beta-blocker as I heard that they can be quite dangerous.

      I decided to try minerals first. I heard that fish oil and magnesium can help. I've been taking Magnesium supplements for 3 weeks. I'm getting better.
