View Full Version : Palpatations
I have been having flutters in my chest about 7-10 times in the last 48 hours, worrying me alot whch then of course fuels them im sure:blush:
My mum and one of my friends said they are totally normal and nothing to worry about. I had a stressful day yesterday, 6 hours in the airport with my 3 children and i hate flying so was rather stressed. Since then my worrying is quite heavy and I am very tired out.
Can anyone reassure me they don't mean anything is wrong?

I've had periods of time over the years when I get heart palpitations. They feel awful, but truly are completely harmless. Another wonderful "benefit" from having anxiety. :wacko: And it sure sounds like you just had a LOT of stress!!!
Thanks, as long as I know for sure they are harmless I am sure they will subside.
I agree with you they are not nice at all, not had them for a while now.
I have just had a holiday away in France, we had a lovely time but we had a car accident and my daughter came out in a rash one night so a couple of things to make my anxiety surface.
Has anyone else had these and been reassured by their GP that they are normal? I am still having them a few times a day.
Hi Libby
Isufferd for 2 years with bad palpitations, in that time i had 2 ecgs and 2 full blood tests, all came back normal, my gp did put me on betablockers and they did hekp me, i came off them after 9 months, i do still get them but not very often thank goodness, they can be very frightening, but usually they are harmless, have a chat to your gp and he might suggest the betablockers if they are causing you so much worry.

Thanks Polly,
I think if I knew for sure they were nothing to worry about id relax and accept them.
Libby hun, im sure that its nothing to worry about, but do go and see your gp and youl see, he will put your mind at rest
Thanks polly,
I will try and go next week.
Hiya Libby
Just wanted to check and see how you are feeling hun, have the palpitations calmed down yet??
HUGS POLLY
Yes they just come and go, they are not constant.
I am very tired today and been run down lately, I am getting no more than 4-5 hrs sleep at night thanks to my kids so that isn't helping. Last night I only got 3.5 hrs:-(
Meant to say thank you for asking:-)
If you look at some of my old posts you'll see the terrible time I had with EXTREME palpitations. Needless to say had every test under the sun and they eased up when my anxiety did.
I feel for you so much and I know its easier said than done but try not to worry- it just makes them worse

Thanks Siobhan,
What did your GP say about palpatations? are they normal/nothing to worry about?
I had bloods done last month for another reason, I wasn't having my palps then.
I am going to try and see my GP next week anyway just to get some reassurance but I am sick of going there, had to go a few weeks ago because of a lump I found. I hate going because they look at you like you are worrying over nothing. I just know my GP will say its my anxiety because he knows I worry about my health.
