can you tell me

[che654]

Good morning everyone..Yes my question are related about the  pulse as are seems like running out my whole body..To start with, I have to recall how it begin:::It was in year 2006 when I was check by our company doctor,she discover that I have an abnormal abdominal  pulse rate..So she advise me to undergo a CT Scan of my whole abdomen..But the result was normal...Although I feel it everyday but since the result comes normal I did not complained any..
Until it comes to the poinnt of year 2009 I felt like I was shaking and can't sleep..
My blood presure on that time was 140/90..And when it comes to the night I when to the doctor when I feels like it was very difficult to sleep..And my pressure goes to 150/90..
3 days after,my Doctor decided me to be admitted to hospital for to do some laboratoty test  and can be observed by doctor as treated..
I undergo any lab test like ECG,X-rays,sugar test and blood test but all are in normal result..I have also  undergo a 24 hours Holter Monitor..And after being observed my Doctor said that  she can find that I was having a 'Cardiac Dysrythmia"..After 3 days being confined from the hospital I get out and with a medications as to take a medicine ( Isoptin 4g) as was taken 2 times a day. And she also given me a medication to take an (Iterax 25g)  half of it on bed time of a night when necessary..
I come to visit my doctors clinic for about 2 weeks when it was still the same with what I feel...On that day I visited her,my doctor changed my medicine to "Amiodarone"...I take it for more than 2 weeks but still it the with what I  feel,,So I going there more often again..
And after 2 weeks taken with  the Amiodarone she decided me to be with the consultation to the most hi-tech hospital in our  place..And released my records as I can bring to my new doctor.
She refer me to a Cardiologist who is a pacemaker,an Electrophysiology and ICD to handle my situation..
A day after I had to be on my new doctor,and she read all my records  and sha found out that all my results are normal..She told me to stop my Amiodarone medicine when it is not good enough for my age..
She called right away to my older doctor and ask permission to undergo a new lab test of a holter monitor when she can't find any  from my result.
On that day I had bringing up a holter monitor into my body..And a day after I went back for to get the holter monitor from my body and at the same time want to know the result of it..
But then the result are still normal ,so she used advise my for a treadmill stress test..
So went back again a day after..And the results are normal again..So she used with to unlist my findings as a 'Cardiac Dysrythmia"...Otherwise my second Doctor advise me to visit a Neurologist..
And my neuro advise me for an EEG..as he found out some abnormal waves  while I am sleeping as those lab are taken when you are sleeping...Though it was very difficult for me to sleep ..As I was suffering about over a month of being soo sleepless..
And so my neuro give me a medication of "Valproic Acid 500g" as was taken for about 6 months..
And after 6 months I undergo again an EEG,,And the rsult  goes to normal when I can  sleep that  some hours of the night..And  change my medicine to 'Valproic Acid 250g" and a week after  with 250g  my doctor decided to stop my medicine..
On that time I need to stop on work for more than 2 months..
NOw,I am feels better and can sleep to the night..
But my question is why is it that my pulse rate are still in whole body..
I feels it on my Stomach as are so forceful connected to my heart,my head and to my arms,knee and feet..
As sometimes I can hear it from my ear..
I have not been to visit a doctor  coz I want to relax my mind of having much medicine before.Coz I can feel bit memory loss on that time..When I can easily forget ,while taking on those some medicines before ..
Now I am 30 years old and can you find any from my health..Thank you!

yes again thank you..I will try to  to do it,,actually I used to eat carbs meals more often on eating time...it was not only my abdomen as i feel the pulse but it  feels like it was my whole body.. i feel that the pulse i feel in my abdomen are connected to my heart beat too....and seems it was in my whole body  as even on my head too..
Thanks for the advice my friend..

I get that after eating high carb meals, so I avoid that. I think it usually is a sign that something is stressing the body so the heart have to work hard (given that you feel this in your entire body as you say..)

If you only have a pulsating abdomen, you should get an ultrasound of the aorta to rule out that this artery is dilated (though that's extremely uncommon at the age of 30).

anyone here can share me of having an abnormal abdominal pulse as are so forceful as seems like have it in my whole body and can make dizzy to someone..have a good day

Yes my first doctor (cardiologist)  had given me an isoptin at first but when I feels like that it was still the same as nothing change of what I feel,,She change it to Amiodarone...I was taken it for a couple of weeks..And I feel nothing had change so I back her again for a  medical check-up..
And a week after my last visit to her..
She decided me to get an expert doctor as really fits on my health..She think that she make to handle with my health..Although she was explaining about the time of having an implant and how much it spend,,.
And so I was to my other doctor as the ICD and pacemaker  doctor,she found out based from my lab test result that I  don't have  a "Cardiac Dysrythmia" when my Holter monitor  result (as where my first doctor said that she found out a diagnosis from that result)....
Though right away she told me to stop taking my Amiodarone..
My second doctor repeat my a Holter monitor for 24 hours for to be sure of it..And she was right when I am with a normal result...
Yes I am feeling good except for  the pulse I have in my whole body as are very forceful as I feel....
Thanks,,

I'm slightly confused by your question.

First, I agree with all the information from the previous poster, and no one here can provide a diagnosis, we are not professionals.

The confusing part is, that while most of this sounded innocent and stress related to me, you were given Amiodarone by your cardiologist(?). This is as far as I know not a common medication for young people, and is usually only given in cases of serious arrhythmias.

First, they gave you Isoptin, which is effective mostly in cases of supraventricular tachycardias and PACs (and for rate control in atrial fibrillation). Then changed to Amiodarone? Not easy to guess which arrhythmia they found..

You mention ICD and pacemakers. Did you mean that the doctor was specialized in this or are they planning to implant one? Further, you say that the results from testing was "normal".

I find it hard to believe that any doctor would give Amiodarone to someone with normal test results. They must have found something? For normal results (just palpitations without any heart disease) as far as I know they provide reassurance, a small dose of beta blockers or isoptin (you say 4g, I hope this is not correct as a daily dosage as it's about 10 times as high as maximum dosage in my country..)

The first thing you need to do is to find out what arrhythmia you suffer from. Then let an experienced cardiologist or EP doctor handle this. As I said, there are lots of confusing things in your post and it's not easy for us lay people to understand it :)

We aren't really doctors in this part of the forum so we can't diagnose you but you may want to pose your question in one of the doctor forums to see if you can get some professional advice.  That said, how is your blood pressure now?  If you are still high, getting it under control may help you feel better.  That said anxiety could be what is causing all of your symptoms.  Overall it sounds like you are pretty healthy.  It sounds like there is some sort of confusion between your doctors about whether you have a heart rhythm disturbance.  But if you do, they can come and go, they are generally not anything to be too concerned over in an otherwise healthy heart, which you have.  So I would say at this point do what you need to do to get any stress and anxiety under control.  Finally, do you find that you have a lot of gas?  It is possible there is some sort of abdominal disturbance irritating the vagus nerve which sends signals to the heart causing it to act up.  If you can clear up any abdominal/digestion issues it may also alleviate your symptoms.  Good luck.  I do hope you feel better soon.  Keep us posted on how you are doing.
