I'm here really because of my husband, he thinks I worry too much :huh:
I'm 30, 10 years ago out the blue I had sinus tach, they gave me a beta blocker and I was pretty good until last Dec. I even enjoyed a latte habit :winks:
It was the day after a shot to induce ovulation out the blue a SVT came one, along with dizziness etc. Went to A&E/ER and they didn't know why. The next month I had sinus tach or a SVT almost daily, I also had low BP, but hey I was newly pregnant and you know, hormones :huh:
Things didn't improve, didn't help I was puking my guts out too of course. After about 20 weeks my resting heart rate stayed over 100, sometimes 130. After many A&E/ER trips later, holter monitors (only picked up tachs never a SVT of course) they induced me.
After the baby I felt very very weak, again, I was tachy but also brady too 40-170 was normal for me.
Now it's been 4 months since having my DD, almost daily I wake up with either sinus tach or an SVT, I have a pulse ox thing so I know how fast I'm going, I get shakey after, like a seziure, it scares the crap out of me, I sweat.
Hubbie thinks I worry therefor I get more of them, cardiologist is useless. I'm still on the beta blocker.
It is runing my life, when it happens I can't nurse the baby, I am scared of dying. And I'm not sure if it is my heart or my heart being a tad wonky but worrying taking it over the top.
2 strange things...
I also developed a fear of meds, pills, new foods, creams that I may be allergic
and when I get these "attacks" I often have to run to the loo.
Anyone able to relate? I just feel alone.
I posted in 2 areas, hope that is OK, not sure what is busier here :unsure:
