So now that I am a member of the palpitation club I just wonder how often other people feel them? It's only been over the past couple of weeks that they have become a problem and I am getting checked by my doctor but they seem to come more and more often now. I am afraid to lay down because that is when I seem to feel them. I try being calm and breathing deep but I always have the anxiety that the next heartbeat with be an unusual one. How does one ever get over this or learn to live with it and not have it consume your life??
