Heart palps out of the blue

[Avasmummy_x]

I had a lot of heart worries last year and had an echo scan which gave me the all clear so I've not been worried about my heart for a long time.

But I'm just wondering - does anyone get random heart palps : fast heartbeat out of nowhere sometimes? I'm just laying down chilling and got that horrible heart palps feeling :-( but im relaxed..

I'm going through a issue at the moment, normally soon as I start to walk it starts. Not all the time. I'm a bit like you in a bit of a state, although both my ecg came back OK. Just had one tonite.

Yes this happens to me often. Generally what happens to me is there will be an anxiety provoking event which causes the palpitations. Sometimes there isn't a cause, but often if I think about it for a while I'll get an idea of what may have caused them. They can persist for months even after all my anxiety has gone. At my worst point I was getting them practically every minute.

Yep, I think it comes more from being in a state of heightened anxiety more generally than being particularly anxious. I seem to get them most when I'm relaxed in bed, for instance.

Thanks guys I woke up really ill today all flemmy and finding it hard to breath.

The palps are real bad too. Could it be linked to being unwell?
