[jodie]

hi
i know i have posted about this befor but i just carnt cope anymore i am getting eptopic heart beats all the time on wedensday they were about every 4 mins i went down to a&e they hooked me up to ecg and they sead my heart was fast but fine .they dident catch one on there .
i just carnt belive that these are normal i carnt cope with them anymore i live in fear all the time i used to be able to go out but now i like to go up to my bedroom and hate going out as i am scared they happen .
when they happen i feel like i yawn a lot?why is this .
would an ecg tell you if you had any probs with youur heart ?if anyone replying gets these can you tell me what sets yours off my triggers are
1/tiredness
2/stress
3/womans probs
4/caffine
i am so scared and i dread the night cos they get worse and i am on my own with this one my hubby is not good with this sort of thing he just gets mad .

Dear jodie

I know how ya feel darling.. and i cant deny that i fear them and i am scared badley of them..but i know lodes of people from this site that get eptopics as bad as you and im one of them.
I dont just get eptopic beats, i get sudders, thuds, it skips a beat.. and moves about all the time, i get palps..you name it i get it..and the eptopic beats jodie like yours i get masif pauses and my head goes dizzy .. its so nasty and i cant get my head round it.
Sometimes i get a feeling like someone is holding my heart and sqwezzing it jodie..and pains in my chest i get them too. And i get them when i yawn, when i move into a different poistion ..or i press on my chest .. just had 20 as i written this.
I too have been to A and E and they have hooked me up and not one of them has showed..its like they know.
Jodie dont listen to the fact that they should only happen once or twice..most people on here that have suffered with this get it lotes and lotes in one day, i can get it mate from the minute i wake up to the minute i go to bed.. and as much as you every 2/3 minutes ..and masif ones... im still here 3 months later.
When i first got these i had anxiety for 20 years and they had never appeared .. then all of a sudden they come from nowhere well i thought it was my lot..and jodie i am not going tolie ..i get terribley depressed about them, i find them so hard to live with..im so scared of them too love..trust me on that.
I have a dear friend called marcia(molly) who come on here,although hasnt for a while now,and i tell you jodie she has had these for years and man she really suffers with them badley..and she told me that you hardley get a person who has got a heart defect because of eptopic beats or palps.. seriously..
Remember as hard as it is.. the more you think on them the more.. they come back at ya..and back at ya and back at ya..
however its not easy trying to forget something that scares the life out of you is it love x

Hi jodie.I agree with april that stress causes yours hun!I have been getting them on and off for around two months and there the worse thing.I tend to get them more when one over breaths,and if im getting stressed out with problems at home.Infact had a few today!I know there scarey but try not to worry as everyone saids there harmless sweet!
The less stress you feel the less they will happen,so make sure you dont get yourself to worked up about things.
Worry only about today and not what tomorrow will bring.You are finexx

Jodie you wrote this to someone else who was suffering ..its easy to give people advice and not take ya own.. but look at your words jodie just look and learn sweetheart.


i felt just like you do all saterday night i went to a&e had an ecg and it was fine i was told it was anxiete that had got realy bad and told me to go home
as for the flutering well i have posted on this so much latley i have had it for 6yrs noe they are eptopic heart beats ,extra beats they get much worse when you are stressed or thinking about them i have them tonight they dont harm you just feel nasty i think when you first get them you should go tell your gp just so they can take a look at you and put your mind at rest there is loads on this site about them have a look around
i am sure you will be fine i have had the for years and i am ok (a little mad but ok


ashley

[jodie]

ash
i know it is so easy to give advise to ppl but not take it in myself
i felt for that person i realy did i suppose i know that they probably wont hurt me but i allways have that dought in the back of my mind that these eptopics arent ok, mad huh.
i read one of your posts you sead that your doc looked a little woried about your eptopics i seem to get them as much as you do will you let me know what happens with you .i hope that you get better soon cos i know how hard it is i realy do it is so bad when you dread getting up in the morning .
i feel like i am not living just existing

Jodie
I know how you are feeling love.. and i do freak out on eptopics they totally do my head in badley..but so many people have this condtion on here and we do have to keep remembering this..dont WE.
I hate them with a passion, and can have them all day long day and night..do you?
I freak,you freak ...we all freak at them,, truth is though jodie... theres hardley a person like i have said before that,
has a health issue with them, they are still harmless ..even as bad as we get them... honest...

ashley x--- will keep ya updated though, but try to except them.. and they will lesson..

[jodie]

thanks ash

do you know i still feel realy scared and very down but today i have actually got sick of hearing myself going on about these eptopics
i have had such a stressfull day my sissters and little brother are so devastated about dad they realy are we spoke to doc today and he sead its like living with a time bomb he could have another bleed and die at anytime and then he may go another 1 2 years [Sigh...]
why the hell dose life have to be this hard for some of us i never thought it would be like this i feel horrid
do you know if i wanted to visit family i just have to go down the cematry they are all there
i seem to live in fear all the time and i have had it now i worry that my little girl leah being around it all
i have prayed for you a few times at church i have never sead cos i dident know if you went to church or not we have been going for years now and it helps lots .
get a promis box and when you feel sad take a bit of paper out of the box it is christian messages from the bible they just remind you he is there and looking after you
god bless jo x
