Thank you so much for answering me:) You have no idea how much it means, well you probably do... I have had my thyroid tested may times and its always fine however last time my pottasium was tested they said it was a little low, I think 3.3 but thats not really low enough to cause anything is it? I actually started eating bananas and taking mag and for a few weeks the flutters were mild, I thought I cured myself but they were back last night, I just dont get it and I am trying so hard to put on my big girl pants but I am so afraid and I cant help it. I have had it flutter a few times for about 15 to 20 seconds where I was losing my breath and I did not think it was going to fix but it did with great effort or though it felt like it anyway. Does that sound like something bad? I have never caught it on a monitor so no idea what it is, it flutters a little like PVCS. I hear so many say they feel thumps which I do sometimes also and I deal fine with that but the flutters I just cant take no matter how hard I try. Why do they feel like flutters or quivers? I had an ep study where nothing was enduced in 2004 (that's a good thing right?) could something have changed in these short years? I did not like it and dont want to do it again but if I could benefit I would. I orginally had it because my doc said I captured SVT on the monitior and he put me on Toprol but when I questioned him about it a year later he did not recall, his nurse called me and told me and said she was calling in meds and I know she had the right person because she repeated what I said I was doing when I called it in. Not sure why he did not recall but it made me uncomfortable. One more thing does one have to take meds for these or is it bad if you dont? I notice I get a lot of PVCS when my heart is slower, I get them both ways but its worse slower. Sorry to be a bother I know your busy and I dont want to take away from anyone else trying to get in.. Thanks... One more thing I noticed the past few years, if I get really upset or mad maybe a rush of adreline my heart does not beat correct and it flutters, is that normal? Its a lot im sorry.
Hello
It sounds like you are really having a difficult time. It appears that you have had the million dollar work up and they have not identified any structural changes. I would return to your doctor and discuss the escating nature of your symptoms. At the very least, he should be able to provide reassurance that nothing has changed and clear yo u to participate in a light exercise program. When you have had extensive testing,it is never a bad idea to consider a second opinion just to lay a fresh set of eyes on the problem. After clearance, I agree that an excercise program with some stress reducing component may benefit you. I would also keep a journal of the occurences and consider seeing an endocrinologist as Ive seen endocrinologic conditions like hyperthyroidism and others present this way
good luck
