Very angry! Does anyone else....

....deal with pounding heart? Now I dont mean fast, probably only 90-110 bpm. But hard beats? I know I have been sick, and had a reaction to an abx, but darnit EVERY time I get up off the couch, or once off try to do laundry, or carry out the trash, or work, etc I get this!!

Just happened again a bit ago. Been on the couch all day. Except to get a drink or go to the bathroom. Went to get a shower and bang bang bang! Can really feel it in my neck and then I worry then I get mad because I had all clear heart tests last year. I been told so many times its in my head and anxiety but im really thinkkng thats BS! I smoke, im probably out of shape, I have IBS and gastritis for a year now. Im so darn tired of this, im mad enough to spit nails! Im 155 lbs and abs showing but cant lift a darn laundry basket without getting hard beats. What in the world causes this?!?!

I took a xanax 3 hrs ago, but just took another half of a .5 mg. I was starting to shake because im that angry. Going to try to get a shower so I can actually go for a ride and not look like a darn bum!

Please excuse my language but im really pissed at myself and this situation. If it wasnt for my stomach pains, bloat, and this darn hard beats Id be back to 100% normal. And I know I just was diagnosed with Hashimotos 3 weeks ago but ill be a you know what if thats the cause of everything. A year ago I was normal, then one day BAM! Turned into a POS that cant function as good as a 90 yr old! Sorry again and no offense to anyone, this is getting the best of me. Ill check back later when im more calmed down. Forgive me.

Thanks SC. I never want to offend anyone. I am just feeling defeated. And I can honestly say this is the first time in a LONG time ive been able to get angry. Ive always been high strung, very aggressive. Imgaine a mix of outdoorsmen/construction worker/Marine(i didnt serve). That WAS me. One year ago, seemingly overnight, I changed into someone totally different. Nothing could stop me. I feared no man or thing. And changed into someone totally different, someone I hated for my weaknesses. You needed something done, you came to me, needed advice I was there. I did it all now can do nothing. Last night it got to me. I know for a fact I have Hashimotis, and extremely low on Vitamin D, but other than that im lost and confused.

No one understands. Im losing control of my finances, my ability to support myself. Im losing support from family and friends. And no one can tell me why my heart pounds. Its possible to be hormonal from hypothyroidism, but no one can say for sure. The only answer is your heart is fine, but that doesnt console me when they hit. Its old....really REALLY old.

Appreciate it SC. Smooths gonna be alright. Me too. Sometimes we need to hear it I guess. Thanks.

Hi Trader,

The same thing happens to me, getting the rapid heartbeat every time I get up to do something.

I think it is because I have put on a lot of weight and don't get any exercise. I am a couch potato and should exercise lol.

Hope you start feeling better soon and its ok to vent,

You may need a probiotic to get your gut flora back in balance after the abx.

Products like Yakult, Kefir and Activia can be bought and consumed as drinks, smoothies or yogurt, respectively...

...or for better results (IMO) a suppliment can be taken. You can find these just about anywhere now...drugstores, even the supermarket in the pharmacy section.

I too hope today is the start of a turn around for you!  Keep us posted.

Yup get them all the time!! A lot after eating or drinking alcohol. .but also just for no reason at all. All I can offer is to drink a lot of water and breathing exercises of course. You're def alone in that department! !
