Hey everyone,
Its been ages since i was on here. I hit rock bottom previously with palps and panic attacks but i really pulled myself together and i have been so much better.
Recently however i have found myself waking up in the middle of the night in a state of panic! A few times its been i havent even been aware i am awake i just open my eyes and im standing in front of my mirror in my bathroom with my hand clung to my neck checking my pulse and eyeballs like dustbin lids! I felt like i was about to have a heart attack there and then.
Now its developed into waking up feeling dizzy and faint - and sick to the stomach. I dread going to sleep now! After all my previous heart tests i have slight Brachycardia (spelling) and im convinced my heart is just going to stop!
I know im being ridiculous - but i cant help my bodies reactions.
I have learnt to live with the plaps - avoiding anything that brings it on and living with it when i know ive been bad (drinking etc) but there are still some areas that just annoy me so much. I just miss being normal lol.
Anyway just thought i would re-introduce myself back to NMP - it helped me so much before to share my story and to talk to others who share our affliciton!
