Suggest The Appropriate Dosage Of Bio Hormones For Racing Heart

default
Posted on Sat, 3 May 2014
Question: Hi, I was recently on a trip and my bio indentical hormones were stolen. Remote location, unable to replace, so didn't take them for a week. Then came home took regular dosage last night and took another dose this morning thinking that I should double the dosage to build it back up in my system. I have had a racing heart rate, almost like an anxiety attack, all day. Is this a common symptom?
