Hi all,
I ended up in A&E yesterday after getting entirely fed up with this bizarre sensation and I was hoping someone might have some light to shed because I'm getting desperate :'(
For the last week I've had constant flutters in the base of my throat. I suppose it would be in that soft hollow between my two collarbones. I can't really pinpoint exactly where it is but it feels very similar if not identical to a palpitation, only when I feel my pulse it feels completely normal!
At A&E they did a trace of my heart (ECG) and she said she was "happy" with the results, even though these weird spasms/flutters were happening during the trace.
It's been pretty much constant since it began with *very* short periods of going away in between! and when I say constant I mean literally all day, every day.
I've also got the whole super fun globus thing going on where it feels like I've swallowed a Ping pong ball. Yay.
It seems to be worse at night and shortly after eating which is obviously putting me off my food too.
I've been on various dosages and timings of propranolol recently. Not sure it's related but thought I'd throw it out there.
Anyone else?? :((((((
