Can you tell I'm having a bad day? I'm posting everywhere!! :weep:
Does anybody every have a painful palpitation? I haven't had these in a VERY long time and then I had one last night and another one just now! It almost feels as if my heart rolls over in my chest or hits my chest wall or something! I don't know if that's my chest muscle or if it's even a palpitation at all, but whatever it is, it scares the heck out of me! I told my GP about this last year and he said "so what? It's not a big deal, you're fine!" I just can't get it through my head that I'm OK! I've been under way too much stress lately and now adding these painful palpitations to the mix is making me worry all over again! Even though my GP says this is normal, do you think that this is normal? I guess I'm just looking for some reassurance.....
Also, do you think that palpitations are hereditary? My mom and sister bother suffer from them. My mother's used to be so bad that they would wake her up at night. I've never had that happen, and I don't want it to! I'm still able to sleep through the night and I'd like to keep it that way!
Thanks in advance for your opinions!
