I was put on an event monitor on Friday of last week and called my doctor today to find out any news on what the reports had been. I spoke with her assistant and she told me that my doctor wanted to do an echo to see why my heart rate was low.
I asked how low and the assistant didn't know. Any how my doctor called me and told me that she decided that she wanted to put me on a treadmill and take pictures of my heart to see what it was doing.
I am freaked out big time!!! I have kids that need me (my panic has set in) I have chills, headache, flushing and am so agitated today. I'm tired of worrying about my health and just want to be normal health wise and mentally.
I feel like a crazy person always thinking this is wrong or that is wrong. It is always some kind of illness with me, but now hearing that my heart rate is low has me at the end of my rope. I thought my heart rate was fast not low!
Now I'm on panic alert and keep thinking I'm going to kick the bucket before they get me in to do the test and then if I get in to do the test what if it is something terrible???? What if I'm broke and they can't fix me?
I feel so anxious. I wondered why the other day I was moving furniture around and my heart should have been beating like crazy, but it wasn't.
I have lived a very sedentary life the past three years and I'm overweight, recently lost 20 lbs was trying to lower my blood pressure and now this.
I don't know what to do besides worry :(
In the past I've had ankle swelling and puffy face and eyes now I'm thinking it must have been because of heart problems all along. I could just cry. My kids need a mom.
Has anyone else gone through this?????
