I have had lots of tests, echo, ekg, one 24 holtor picked up sinus tachi, and my latest 48 holtor picked up pvc's and pac's (more off)..
BUT i can't get my head round that there is nothing wrong with me, cardio was a bit against taking meds, (he gets them and says he can cope)... But gave me a script for bisoprolol which i am weary of taking, i would rather proponol, but everytime i am getting these palps they are really freaking me out and i cant stop thinking the worst, my life is limited, and i can't cope psychology :(....
My heart rate never goes above 120 on rest, which i am sure is good, as there are lots of you who are worse!! But it's the skipped beat,s the flutters etc that are frightening me..
I have stopped having take aways due to msg, can't drink alcohol, stopped heavy meals, stopped choc, no caffiene, and i am wanting to stop smoking (which is the hardest thing for me).... Yet i am still getting them?
I hate them... They are ruining my life, to the point where my hubby keeps telling me to go to the doctors to get some psychologic medication, and my friend keeps saying proponlol (inderal) because you can take as needed, and more than 1 a day, and it is giving to anxious people and it would do me good rather than bisporlol..
But what scares me, is i have had antidepressents before in the past for postnatel depression and they always raised my heart rate and i had quite alot of flutters, so doctor took me off them..And i am scared of being dependant on them? (this was 9 years ago)
Oh i don't know what to do,
How do you cope?
