Re: FAst Heart Rate
Hi Country
Beta blockers will cure you of your fast heartrate in a few hours. I am amazed that you put yourself through such unecessary anguish, when one pill a day will improve your life dramatically.
There is nothing organically wrong with your heart, and 130-140 bpm is not that fast. Your heart is a magnificent organ that could take over 200 bpm for many days without any signs of injury. If you were running for a bus, or were on the treadmill at the gym, you would think nothing of your heart having to beat so 'fast', in fact it would have to reach these levels if you were to get any benefit from the treadmill!
Believe me, a heartrate of 120-130 is no threat to life or health, and will not lead to catastrophe. Your anxiety is causing your heart to beat faster than you are comfortable with, but with this comes 'looking within' and you will naturally focus more time than you should on your heart. I can just see you now pacing up and down the floor, fingers hovering over your pulse, at least 50 times a day..... and for what?
I strongly suggest that you try a beta blocker, and I guarantee you that within 12 hours, you will not have a racing heart anymore. These are incredibly safe drugs, they will not cause any discomfort, and more importantly, will give you your life back.
Hope this helps a bit.
House.
