Re: Want to get back into gym but fear heart issues
So, I decide that since I've been getting faster beats, acid at times and all the breaths etc etc. It might be a result of reflux? I was on tablets for it for a year ago...I mean, this feeling has been going on/on off for over a week now! So I doubt it's anything to serious and I had a 10 hour shift mainly standing today...so that was a work-out on it's own lol and I know it's silly to say but when I was wearing my headphones I could hear my on heartbeat super loud in my ears and it was rather unsettling lol
Re: Want to get back into gym but fear heart issues
I went to therapy today and she made some great points about some of the breathing/issues I'm having. I went through a few hard events lately and as such she thinks some of this is a delay panic time. So while it may seem hard- I'm trying to be realist. I'm 23, fit enough- not as fit as I want to be but I'll get back there. I don't smoke, don't have any issues so far or family issues with heart issues...so I'm probs okay!

Reflux can definitely caused skipped beats, it's due to irritation of the vagus nerve.
Re: Want to get back into gym but fear heart issues
Just wanted to comment here- I think it's funny how if my heart going to fast I stress. If it's going to slow and feels weak I freak- there's no happy in-between! Well, my heart been a worry for over a month now and I'm still here! All the skips beats, fast or slow....all of it. I'm trying trying to over-work my anxiety and tell myself it's fine and I'm fine. I'm 23 with good blood pressure! I'm slowly getting into work out again! It been nice doing it- just working it into things to help me in the long run

Hi LouiseAndy!
Sorry for the late reply - I hope you’re feeling a bit better! :)
I know exactly how you feel... last few days my ectopic beats have been so bad and I do find it hard to believe that its not damaging my heart! I too and up and down when it comes to exercise. One day I feel like I can do it, other days I’m so worried and anxious. It’s very frustrating!

It's horrible isn't it! Like today it kept going to fast/hard or to slow/soft! Like I can't stand up without feeling like my heart rate is Racing! I'm doing my best to just carry on! Slowly working in more exercise! Hoping it settles down with you soon x
