heart flutters and exercise
I have not been very active for awhile now. I am 25, but I feel like I am 90. I am not overweight at all because when I am anxious I cannot eat. I decided to start to exercise not so much to lose weight, but to get in shape and just feel better. Anyway... I am having a very difficult time because I have a lot of fears about my heart. I want to get my heart into shape (my resting heart beat is about 100 bpm!!) Whenever I exercise my hear beats quickly, and it freaks me out. Even worse, when I am all done my heart still feels odd/shaky for awhile after. Is this normal???? Can anyone relate??? as I work out more will it imprive? I have been to a cardiologist a few times, and he swears there is nothing wrong with my heart. My heart fears began when I was pregnant and very nausous. From all the vomiting my heart went into atrial fibrilation. I guess I get terrified that working out will put the same strain on my heart. Can anoyone relate to working out, and heart fears?
