Hi guys! Not on here much due to being in recovery but still like to pop up now and again to help others etc. However I had my appointment with the cardiology nurse today to get my 24 Hour Heart Monitor attached. I just wanted to know has anyone else had one and how did you get on?
Since my anxiety recovery i dont get panic attacks anymore but i must admit i felt a little anxious before i went in. But i remember how bad i used to be and i would of probably had at least 10 panic attacks today just KNOWING i had to have a heart monitor LOL.
Basically my symptoms are palpitations (feeling of double and skipping beats), dizziness with palpitation, and central chest ache on and off. My mum has a heart murmur and my great grandmother had heart problems from birth, so i think thats why i might be more concerned than i should be. Im just glad the doctors are now taking me seriously. They never used to listen and would just say 'its all anxiety' but now im in recovery from anxiety (and they have proof from all my therapists and counsellors) they seem to be listening :) Im hoping it is all just stress (money difficulties and being a lone parent) but i just want that peace of mind i suppose :)
Its annoying as since ive had this thing on, ive not a SINGLE palpitation!! GRRR!! Stupidly i actually WANT one lol....i want to prove i get them lol!!
