When do you know when to go to the ER for palpations? When you just cant stand it anymore?

If you have shortness of breath or pain you should consider going to the ER or if you feel like you are going to pass out.  Good luck!

The ER cant do anything for your palps.. They cant just magically stop them unfortunatly :( ... If they are just annoying you, you dont need to go to the ER.. The only time you should go to the ER for palps is if you feel you are at a serious health risk (shortness of breath, chest pain, dizziness, or if you are so anxious you cant stand it anymore).. just keep in mind, they cant do anything for your palps.. If theres nothing else going on, they will most likely jsut give you ativan and send you home.
