Palpitations??

[kt]

Hi everyone,
just wanted to check something out.... I know what palpitations are, but can they also feel as tho your heart is beating in your throat? Hope this doesn't sound weird, but it's like the feeling you get when you hear some bad news and you get like a momentary rush and beating feeling in your upper chest and throat area. Sorry if I haven't explained it well, just wondering if anyone else gets this.

Hi Kt,

If it's any consolation, I get this all the time when I'm anxious. Thats mostly how I know I'm having palpatations lately, I feel them in my neck! So no, it doesn't sound weird to me!

Very common Kt.

We've all been there. Its not dangerous amd does get better as you calm down.

Hi everyone,

My palpitations and missed beats have been going on for nearly three years now and I don't seem to be getting any better. Sometimes, even when I feel calm they are there. Meg, it should be so reassuring for me when you say - Its not dangerous - but why can't I accept it. My counsellor doesn't want to keep going over my feelings about the missing beats, but at the moment, as usual these are what are still scaring me. Please can anyone possibly help or advise. Thankyou
