Suggest Treatment For Heart Palpitations And Anxiety
I have had bloodwork, catscan, ekg, chest xray two months ago. All normal. They say it s anxiety but can anxiety really make me feel heart palps whenever I move basically? I have extreme health anxiety since the palpitations started. I have them maybe 2 or 3 times a day, some days none. I used to only have them one or two times a year before I had my second child. Since him I have ppd and anxiety.
Palpitations commonly occur due to CAD, but it is good to know that your CT, chest X-Ray, blood works, EKG all show normal reports. You are suggested to maintain healthy weight if obese. Quit addictions (nicotine, caffeine, alcohol, illegal drugs, etc) if any. Stay away from stress, anxiety & tensions(physical & emotional). Other medical conditions that can cause such symptoms are dehydration, low blood sugar, anemia, thyroid issue.
You are suggested to get clinically examined by a Psychiatrist & GP, You may need anti depressants or anti anxiety medications. Your treatment will depend on the pathology detected. Stay well hydrated, take ORS. Maintain normal blood glucose & BP level. Take homemade nutritious food rich in minerals.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
