Massive increase in ectopics with a cold

[Charlie1108]

Been back to the doctors this morning. My skips are worse than ever and now happen as soon as I start moving which is confirming my fear that they are dangerous. All I want is help and to be fixed but the drs are adamant it's anxiety. I've had so many tests and all have come back clear so the drs will not order any more. But when I had a recent holter I had hardly any ectopics - they've upped their game considerably since. What am I to do? I want to see my kids grow up. It's broken me.

I see my post has an ironic title. This is obviously not the place to come for some support

I am not sure what to say except trust the doctor's.

You have had all the tests and you are fine.

What are you doing to treat the anxiety?

Based on your post history, you've received a lot of support. I'm sorry your troubled and can't find it in yourself to accept your real illness as treating your anxiety would also treat the symptoms associated with it.

Good luck and as always...

I'm taking Prozac but it's proving fruitless

Maybe you need something like CBT - you could try the free CBT programme we recommend on here.

Catherine gave you the benefit of her experiences to reassure you.

Apart from meds are you doing any therapy to deal with your HA?

For how long? Takes time to work - 4-6 weeks min.

I can't afford therapy. I spent a fortune when pregnant on it but now I'm on maternity pay I just can't. My symptoms are getting worse rather than better and the fact they will not do anymore tests terrified me. I honestly feel like they're going to kill me

Online CBT programme is free. Understand your anxiety is high but you must do something about it rather than put yourself through all these tests which will never reassure you enough anyway.
