Is it common for people who suffer with
anxiety to get palpitations? Ive been
getting alot latley and I was just
wondering? Ive had a heart ultrasound and
ecg's done in the last 5 months and im ok,
I was just wondering if this is all
anxiety?

You may have hypoglycemia. Any other
symptoms that you've noticed, physical or
mental?

I don't think I have any other symptoms
like fatigue or anything other than being
an anxious person all the time. Im pretty
physically active too.
And these palpitations are like a big thud
in my chest and I get them like 5 times a
day or more, just lately though.

I dont think it has to do with anything we
eat. Well unless yuo drikn coffee lots of
soda and sugar stuff yeah that might cuase
me but a steak or a hamburger every ocuple
of days is ok.
I get them all the time it drives me nuts
I absolutly hate it. Im fearfull of
getting them too wich probably makes me
get them worse.

Yeah I know what you mean mitch7654, im
waiting for it to happen and I think thats
whats causing alot of them. I do usually
drink a coffee a day but thats all.
Although the last 3 days I have stoped
drinking them and so far so good. I
really think its mostly having anxiety all
the time that causes these palpitations
and I think just talking about them really
helps too, so thanks you guys.

I had this same issue earlier this year.
I had had the ekgs, a holter monitor
(monitored heart 24 hours a day), etc.
They found nothing. I personally think
it can be related to anxiety. Now that I
have been on prozac I haven't had any
palpitations . Maybe it was a
coincidence. But my doc also believe
that it could have been related to my
stress and anxiety but never confirmed it.
Thank goodness I haven't experienced
them anymore. They are very scare and
mine like yours would happen several times
a day no matter what I was doing, inactive
or active. Are you suffering from
anxiety, stress, or depression?

Yes I have had anxiety for around 6 years
now. I do not take medications although
I have befor, I usually am able to keep my
anxiety and panic attacks under control
myself. Im really glad to hear that I am
not alone and other people are expriencing
the same thing.

Actually, I was fine for a couple days.
I had no palpitations, but all of a sudden
they came back and its not just 3 a day
its more like 10 a day. Alot of these
come when I am sitting down on the couch
watching t.V, because when im out running
or after running, I don't get any? Im
guessing im just so stressed, when really
I have nothing to stress about. I hate
anxiety.
