Can stomach upset cause fast heartrate?

I had a terrible stomach attack last night and I think it came from something I ate because after having a couple of bm's it started to calm down. ...but still feeling bloated and kinda sore. So of course this caused me to have another anxiety attack so I'm not sure if the fast heart rate is due to the stomach thing or the anxiety, or both. Anyone have a fast heart rate when experiencing IBS or indigestion? I took my beta blocker which is supposed to slow down heart rate but it seems to be taking a long time....obviously I'm still really nervous about the stomach thing and only getting a couple hours of sleep so maybe that's still contributing to it.

Yes Andwes, do not worry I am pretty sure it is anxiety. I experience the same every time I have upset stomach.
We anxiety sufferers tend to be very sensitive with stomach issues, which causes lots of anxiety...

Anxiety = Fast heart rate :) you already know that!

Scaredy Cat always has good advice. I too, have those very issues, but have learned that eventually it will go away. Take care!

Thank you H.T. and Reepin!! :) :) ;)

Hi Andwes

I hope you are feeling better today.

Anxiety can cause all sorts of symptoms including fast heart rate and IBS so work at lowering your anxiety and your other issues should improve.
