Posted , 7 users are following.
This morning I woke up I don't even know why or how all I know is I could not breath my body was numb and stiff I managed some how to stand up but my eyes was all blurry and I felt dizzy I finally started getting my breathing back up and grabbed my baby went downstairs I grabbed my bp machine my bp was high and my heart rate was 144 !
It went down after sitting and explaining to my partner what happened well everytime I stand my heart rate goes up I used my bp machine to check that it wasn't all in my head and it will go to like 126 bpm just on standing after walking I sit down take my bp again it shows irregular heart beat symbol so I sit for abit hr is 86 bp is like 104/74 ect I stand again walk around sit down take it and irregular heart beat shows up again it's flashed up 4 times everytime I stand i get that nervouse feeling in my chest automatically and my heart rate has already gone up and my chest and belly go tight ! Does it sound like a arrhythmia ??
I've been in tears all morning I have never experienced what happened this morning before I've had panic attacks all my life too

How old is your baby? I'm just wondering if this is post-natal depressiion, or are you anxious about your baby?
It sounds like you're having a very tough time, but please tell me why you have the blood pressure machine in the house? Was it prescribed? Have you ever been taken to hospital and had an ECG?
How much of this are you telling your doctor?
I'm a nurse anad midwife, so let me tell you that your heart rate and blood pressure are NEVER constant. Of course your heart rate goes up when you stand up. That's normal. I'm not trying to minimise what you're going through, but if you keep looking at the machine you'll become paranoid.
It's possible that you had a scary dream just before you woke up, which you now can't remember.
Arrhythmias can only be seen on an ECG. Your machine can't tell you.
I'm going back to the baby, and the fact that you've had panic attacks all your life. ARE YOU going through post-natal depression? Is it your first baby?
You've been in tears all morning, panicking, but you haven't phoned an ambulance. Neither have you called your doctor. Darling, if you're so worried you NEED to have this checked. Nobody on this forum can diagnose things because we can't see one another, neither do we know each other's medical histories.
Something is going on here, so you need trained, face-to-face advice.
If you're having problems with the baby sleeping and so on, get back to me. I am an old hand at babies and their ability to keep their parents on the edge of a nerevous precipice.
Lots of love and get to your GP, please, Steph, from Tess.
