Hi Everyone,
I haven't been on here in a while mainly because I've been really busy and have been coping a lot better with my HA and panic. But yesterday I had a bit of a bad turn. When I was out I felt a flutter in my chest, then again every few minutes. After about 10 mins of getting them I checked my pulse which felt like there was extra beats and didn't feel like my pulse was regular. After a few mins it went back to normal and the fluttering stopped, but I was still worried. I went to the hospital as my doctors surgery was closed and they did an ECG and so on and said I was fine. I've previously had an Echocardiogram and a 24 hour holter monitor, both came back with normal results.
Even though the results have come back normal I'm starting to worry about my heart again. The doctor said that it could have been a batch of ectopics that I was experiencing. But since I've never felt an irregular pulse before I am really scared that it might happen again and that it might be something dangerous. When you have ectopics can you get a few in a row? Does your pulse usually feel irregular when you get them, like extra beats?
