Hi there. Yesterday I ended up in A&E for the afternoon with palpitations. I have suffered from them from a very young age but they have only ever lasted 2-3mins. Yesterday I had them for over an hour. Doc's were very concerned. Heart did eventually go back to normal rate. So I did a search on google to find out more and I found this site [:o)]

Hi logladie,

Have you other symptoms that lead you or your doctors to believe you may have panic or anxiety rather than a spontaneous cardiac rhythm issue ?

Are other investigative tests being arranged ?

Glad you're ok now

Hi Logladie,

Welcome to the forum and I'm sorry you have had such a rough time. Have the doctors said the palpitations are due to anxiety? I have suffered with palpitations/ectopic beats for nearly 5 years and have had ECGs and the doctors couldn't find anything serious and put it down to anxiety but I still get them daily only not quite so bad and have had to learn to live with them.

Hope you feel better soon and you will get lots of help and support here from a very friendly bunch of people.

Take care
Love Lisaxx

Hi Logladie,

I get palpitations/missed beats most days too and am just learning to accept that they are anxiety related.

Hope the doctors sort you out and we would all be interested to know what they tell you.

Welcome aboard. Did they say it was panic/anxiety or are they going to do more tests.

Hope you are ok now.
