My heart keeps fluttering

[gordie1]

Hi there im really worried over the past few days my heart will flutter, it is like palpitations which I am now used to and dont worry me however with this my heart will miss a beat like palpitations then seem to stop and then skip 2 or 3 beats. Ive had an ecg at the surgery today and my doc was really nice and listened to my heart yesterday and he thinks everything is ok but told me to have ecg to reassure me he is also going to organise a 7 day holter monitor for me. But I also keep on getting pins and needles in left arm that last for a few seconds and then come back- can this be a sign of anxiety?? Im on propanalol 2 times a day 40mg. My doc thinks this is panic attacks but Im not anxious when I have them only afterwards

Pins and needles and aching body parts is 100% anxiety well for me anyway, also hot flushes and tiredness i also get

dont worry about it and think positive if you can :)

Hello. I have the same, funny enough its been really playing up this evening. With regards to the pins and needles i think alot of that you may be over breathing yourself. I get very bad dizzy spells with mine do you?? Its nice to hear from someone else who is going through it.

Oh I know how you feel. Tonight I was at the cinema, felt proper anxious for the whole bloody 2 and a half hours, my heart was fluttering like I don't know what. Some were 2-3 even 4 in a row, others came and went and then the dreded adrenaline rushes. I wanted to run out of there so bad but just stayed and put a brave face on but I seriously believed I was gonna die. Had to keep reminding myself that it is just anxiety and flutters happen to everyone whether they feel it or not. I'm glad your ECG was good, good luck with the 7 day monitor, they are proper annoying to wear but will give you the reasurrance that you need. x
