Heart palpatations

[Margykira]

Hi my name is margy, only jut joined today, I'm worried because for the past 4 days I have been feeling like I'm getting skipped beats and sometimes extra beats. I'm really scared. In the past year I have had a 24hr hotel monitor and that come back normal and I have had many ecgs and they came back normal. Can anyone give me some advice please. :)

If all your tests came back normal then I would say it is most likely to be anxiety. have you spoken to your GP about anxiety?

[Margykira]

Yeah I have and I'm on propranolol for my anxiety but I'm constantly thinking what if there is something wrong and my doctor is saying it's anxiety all the time and I had those ecgs done a year ago may be abit less.

[Annie0904]

I would trust your doctor :) It is a very common symptom of anxiety.

[Margykira]

Is it, is it common to have missed or extra beats all the time though.
