Hi. My name is Elaine. I fell and whiplashed my neck last year in March, and have gradually been getting over many symptoms caused by the fall. As in Hot flashes, nausea, heart palpitations, startling easily, and even ending up not being able to talk, to name a few. I still get hot flashes at times, and have an uncomfortable abdomen. At night when I lie down in bed, my heart seems to pound, sometimes going about 108 beats a minute and sometimes stays like that all night. Is this a symptom of the whiplash, or could there be something more serious going on? When I push into my abdomen (just below my ribs in the centre), it is uncomfortable, and sometimes makes my heart go faster. Are you able to give me any light on this problem? Thanks.
