    New to this!!

    Hi
    Have been looking at this site for a while but have been too scared to introduce self, because then I would have to admit how awful I feel sometimes.
    After almost three years of episodes of heart racing, runs of skipped beats ,dizziness and low blood pressure and two Cardiologists - one with an initial diagnosis of a heart attack(which sent previous non existent anxiety levels sky high!!!)- finally given a diagnosis of 'bigeminy' - which although I'm reassured is benign - makes me feel physically awful at times.

    Not sure which is producing the symptoms now - flip-flopping heart or anxiety and panic attacks.

    Anyone have any answers?
    Want my life back!!!

    Hello! You had LOW blood pressure? Only time I've ever heard of that is when my dad had a severe panic attack when thinking he was having a heart attack - his blood pressure was half its normal rate.

    Your present symptoms will probably be anxiety. Heart palpitations are normal when stressed, especially at night, and tiredness and anxiety will only make it worse. If it was something serious, you probably wouldn't have time to write it up and post it here, so relax and enjoy knowing you are well

    What would you do if you weren't afraid?
