Happy new year everyone...my anxiety is through the roof right now. I rang the doctor a few days ago and when I said I was having heart palpitations and had a tingling left hand I had to go straight to A&E which really scared me. After 4 hours of waiting I had an ECG which was normal and a blood test which was normal and spoke to a doctor who said to try cutting out alcohol. He also recommended I made an appointment with my doctor to be referred for a heart scan and wear a 24 hour monitor to track my heart rate. I can’t help thinking that something really bad is going to happen. I’m always anxious and overwhelmed with the run up to Christmas but my palpitations are worse when I’m thinking about them. He wasn’t concerned about the tingling hand and said it could be carpel tunnel. I can’t cope with this, I’m so scared 😞
