I posted a few weeks ago moaning about the
constant feeling of
spinning,tirdness,floaty feeling i have
had for 8 months now,exactly a week after
the birth of my second son.
I had an app at the hospital to see a
specialist,i had my ears and balance
checked and everything was normal.
We then had a good chat,and he seems to
think that what im experiencing is defo
anxiety related even PND.
As i had the exact same problem after my
first son was born,i started feeling ill
about a week after,and that lasted a year
or so.
My palps are pretty bad at the moment
too,which they make me feel anxiuos and
scared,as i used to always associate them
with the begining of a nasty panic
attack,which i used to get reguarly.
Ive been prescribed Propranol Bedranol
80mg once a day on long term,which seem to
help with some things.
I can handle everything eles, but this
dizzy feeling just wont go away,and its
draining,im finding it really hard to cope
at the moment.

i think its pretty safe to say if you went
to the doc and they say its anxiety, it
probably is. Ive been dealing with all the
same stuff too. My dizziness isnt as bad
lately, but the palps are driving me
crazy. It really freaks me out! Have you
tried any meds?

Yes im currently taking propanol (beta
blocker) these do seem to help with the
palpitations,well at least keeping them
under control!!
They defo freak you out,i was getting them
nearly all the time but since ive been
taking he beta blockers it has made a
difference!
Ive also been precribed citlopram,which is
an anti depressent,also helps with anxiety
and panic attacks,ive only just started
taking it so cant say if its any good as
yet!
I dont want to be taking all these meds
for ever more,but if they help its got to
be worth it!!!
take care!
