    just looking for a bit of advice

    I will give a bit of background information so it is easier to understand.

    A few months ago, I started having heart palpitations and my heart was feeling funny. I was referred to cardiology with a appointment at the hospital where they fitted a 7 day heart monitor. i waited a while and about 6 weeks ago I got that back, and it came back that my heart was fine, and nothing to worry about.

    Then i started having palpitations again so they did a ecg, which came back completely fine, I got worried and went to hospital, they did another ecg and another a few weeks later, both fine.

    The best way to describe it is feeling like my heart is weak and that it's about to skip a beat, also I have a feeling in the throat which feels like a tight band around it, i searched this and found that this is a symptom of anxiety.

    But just lately I have been having cold like symptoms like a runny nose and sore throat and a cough, and i was feeling dizzy, so yesterday i went to the doctor and she looked in my throat and said my tonsils were enlarged but it wasn't tonsilitis yet and it looks like i have a bit of a virus, which was a relief and a explanation to the dizziness.

    It's just my heart I am worried about, is this normal to feel like this, is it possible it is anxiety since all my heart results came back fine?

    It would be great if anyone could tell me if they have had any similar experiences.

    Thank you

    Lucy

    This entire sub-forum is about experiences similar to yours. And with almost zero exceptions, testing all proved to be normal. Anxiety can and does cause palps.
