    Hi Lucky,

    I tend to have a fast beating pulse quite a lot. One of my problems is that I seem to focus on how fast it is beating which causes it too beat faster for longer etc..

    that is truer than you think sadie,there are people in parts of the world,that sit in a yoga position,concentrate on there thoughts,and feelings,and can get their heart rate down to 5 beats per minute,and hold it,at that rate,for as long as they want.

    dont fancy trying it myself though! ....bryan.

    Try two things - one, get fitter as the fitter you are the slower your pulse

    and most importantly - two, try not to think about it too much!!! Easier said than done I know, but the more you think about it, the more likely it is to rise, and the more it rises, the more likely you are to think about it.

    As Bryan and Sadie pointed out, there are people whos bodies are so well trained that they can raise or lower their pulse just by thinking about it. Obviously the reverse is true!

    A fast pulse, irregular heartbeat, skipping a beat etc. are all very common symptoms of our anxiety, and if the doctor has given you the once over, please accept that you are ok, and have nothing to worry about!
