Woke up with my heart pounding this morning but when I took my pulse it was only around 60-70 bpm. I was laying on my back and could feel my heartbeat pounding away. Why would it do that if my pulse was so low?
I've had three separate episodes of skipped beats today. I am one day late for my period also.
I've been having some left side chest pain. I'm also unusually thirsty and can't seem to quench it. And had some slight diarrhoea earlier.
I keep getting a catch in my breath when I inhale, almost like you get when you've been crying a lot and it sounds like a mini hiccup.
I'm really concerned. My family are visiting today so I'm trying to put on a brave face but I'm seriously considering A&E soon.
So scared. I have never had so many skipped beats before.
Took my blood pressure. Normal/a little on the low side.
Heart beat still around 65-70 at rest.
I have an ECG booked for next week but I'm not sure this is soon enough. I keep thinking that in these circumstances I should go to A&E or call an ambulance.
