Hi,I am Dr. Subhankar Chakraborty (Gastroenterologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Feel Like Heart Racing And Have My Bowel Movements. Cause?
I wake up in the middle of the night, my heart is racing, I get a tingling sensation that waves through my body and i alway have a bowel movement after this happens. I try to take deep breathes while it is happening but it's hard to breath deep when your heart is racing. The wave of tingling will come about three to four times during an episode. Once my heart slows down I have a bowel movement and things seem to settle down. I am not anxious before this starts but I am once it starts. What can cause this. I've been told anxiety attach but know that is not the cause but is a result once an episode starts.
Hi You wake up in the sleep, with racing heart, tingling of the body followed by bowelmovement, and things settle down. It is not due to anxiety, but most probably due to gastro intestinal irritation. I to my patients wit such symptoms, prescribe, ranitidine 300 mg twice daily. for one month. So i advise you to consult a physician for treatment. thank you.
