Well I must have jinxed myself when I said my anxiety has decreased since I've been pregnant. The past three days have been horrible. ): I just had the longest heart palp/flutter I've had in a long time. It scared me so bad I started crying,was so upset it made anxiety worse. I am waiting for the day they completely stop haunting me because this is SCARY. I can't think of any other tests I can have done. Maybe another holter monitor, one that stays on me the whole time instead of me trying to catch them because they have been too quick for me to catch. The one that I just had would have been perfect for a holter to have seen..maybe get some answers. It was right after I ate. I know my blood and heart is pumping harder due to pregnancy, and maybe it was even harder because I had just eaten dinner (healthy of course,I'm pretty good at eating healthy) and have a full stomach. Every time this happens I get all disoriented and feel like crap for the rest of the day. I am tempted to go to another cardiologist (would be #3), and once and for all get a dang answer! If I have to live the rest of my life with these, I am going to be one miserable person. They(my pcp and cardiologists) have all told me they are not dangerous, how could a disruption of your heart rhythm such as these flutters not be dangerous!?!? I am not convinced of it. I am still shaking because it scared me so bad! I feel like my heart is just going to stop the next time it happens and so I wait and wait for the next time it happens, scared out of mind!! I've done everything right, ate healthy, exercised, except I did smoke for a few years but quit a few years ago, I am at a healthy weight I'm active, I just don't get it. No one else around me gets them, why ME!?!? No one else around me has anxiety, WHY ME!? I'll never understand it. I don't feel I deserve this, it makes me really sad, and depressed. I'm always scared it's going to happen again,I never have a clear mind of it! Had a 2 hour long panic attack in class yesterday, I had to leave. Scares me for when I start my career in a few months. I fear I am not going to be able to do this. I just feel so unhealthy because of this and it's ruining everything, my happiness, my life, it affects it all. Any advice on what to do about
these or how to live with them and be happy or how to feel "normal" with them, would be appreciated I cant seem to be happy anymore because of them..I feel I am going to drop over and die any minute, like the doctors are missing something serious. Ugh.,, ):
Have a great night everyone xx
