Hello Fellow Ladies & Gents
This is my first post on Nmp! Although i have been a long time reader!
I feel the need to post on Nmp it has helped me so much I hope I can help others too so!! I will add my history in the hello section soon...
But briefly I have Heart HA its been getting worse with panic attacks these past 3-4 weeks.. Just when I Stopped taking Simvastatin i have been on 40mg since 2008 as a precaution after I lost my mum she was 58 she had Heart bypass & then sadly TC Plus her Dad died Young of a HA!! so theres heart history
Anyway had my Ecg test again last week and this came back normal, Bp at docs slightly high 145/80 and my heart rate was 80 but doc says its ok & this could be due to my raised Anxiety!!
I told her about I can feel my Heart always racing away with itself. I don't think its Palpataions its just feels like my Heart is Beating too fast & racing away...
she said its due to the increased adrenaline caused by Panic etc! I know this of course & Thinking about it & checking yourself just makes it worse; Panic; racing Heart:Panic in a loop
So she Prescribed me 40mg Propanol twice a day when i need them>she said these do help with the production of adrenaline etc
This was two weeks ago & like a few people on here I have been worried & anxious to take them alone!!
I'm visiting friends over the weekend so I may give one a try then. I'm not feeling Anxious ( yet but may do )
But I don't want to start relying on them in my mind!!
My question is can prolonged adrenaline caused by Panic Attacks that can last for days be Harmful to your Heart ( causing it to beat faster ) or the other organs that it also affects?? How does the body get rid of the excess adrenaline?? Someone told me you just wee it out?
Oh I have given up Dr Google many years ago!! Anyone else please DO NOT use it!!
Thank you so much for reading this far I apologise for my first long post I do tend to go on ( sorry )
