Good evening. Feeling very anxious tonight for some reason. I have felt great with pretty much no anxiety all week. Then tonight it just hits me out of nowhere. I've taken a xanax but it isn't helping my heart palpitations. My heart is pounding and it's got me so anxious.

I have a website I'm going to advise that you check out regarding your palps. It has helped me tremendously. The forum is now closed to new posts but everything you could think of is there to read. Look for answers specifically by the forums moderator RLR. His words are comforting and I think anyone with palpitations would benefit from reading what he has to say.

Teacher,

I am sorry that you are feeling this way...not the way you want to spend a Friday night! :(

Here's some more help from our Resources.

Self Help for PVCs

Remember, these are benign, and could be the result of anxiety, fatigue...even something you ate/drank.

They will pass!

Feel better soon,

S.C.

Thank you both. I checked out what you guys recommended and they both helped. Heart palpitations are the worst.

The problem with PVC's is you let them scare you and then your body reacts with major anxiety which makes the pvc's worst. I know it's hard but if you have been checked out by a heart doctor and they tell you the pvc's are not dangerous then that might help you. I get them from time to time also, I ignore them and go on and soon they are gone.

I haven't been to a heart doctor but I feel that they probably are just anxiety related and not dangerous because I only get them when I settle down at night. I never get them when I'm busy and on the go. But you're right...when I get them,I get scared and focus on them and then they get worse.
