Why do i have so many Heart palpitations?
This pass week I have had many heart palpitations & not sure why? I had heart surgery when I was 3 yrs old on arotic value,I have check ups with a heart Dr every few months but they don't find anything unusual I have had stress test & everything ok! Last time I was at hospital they said I had many pvcs & said I had SVT, & I had to wear heart monitor for 24 hrs? I usually don't have any other systoms with them but does scare me,I have an appt with heart Dr next month! Thanks!
There can be several causes for palpitations.
I think the most frequent causes are stress/anxiety/high bp. PVCs also are often stress related.
Often people get caught in a vicious circle, palpitations > increased stress > increased blood pressure > palpitations more noticeable > .....
My advice is: Try not to think about it and ignore the palpitations, keeping in mind that your stress test was ok, so there can not be anything seriously wrong with your heart.
