Are Recurring Palpitations, Acidity Issues And Anxiety A Cause For Concern?
Hi,i had palpitations continuously a few months back which eventually stopped when i stopped sleeping during afternonns....and heart beat is higher than normal mostly when i think a lot .i am by nature an anxious person and targets put me under a lot of stress.i also suffer from acidity issues.now again i had palpitations yest ...but i was stressed out because i worked a lot for the past few days.....would it be something to do with my heart....my thyroid is normal....my ECG was normal a year back...should i take another one now...i also have chronic exzema which restricts me from eating well.So most of the time i end up feeling tired and exhausted....
Since you have normal ECG and thyroid we have to find for the other causes of palpitations. By and large then the commonest I can think about is your anxiety and stress. Hence I would advise you the following. Consult a Cardiologist for proper cardiac evaluation to confirm that there is no heart related problems. Recheck thyroid functions from reputed lab on fasting blood sample. Evaluate at the Psychiatrist about anxiety and related disorders and proper medications will help to have alleviated symptoms. Stop worrying. You may need alternative treatment in the form of meditation and naturopathy.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
