Try not to worry too much, just pumps the blood pressure up even more!
Is it all under control now?
Mine just beats too fast when I'm stressed. Superventriculartachycardia they call it.
Met a guy on holiday, got talking and he said "oh I've had that. They put you on heroin for 6 weeks, bring you into hospital, take you into theatre, stop your heart, restart it again, then you take heroin for 6 weeks more"

Sorry I just had an image of a couple of doctors, flanked by dancing penguins, coming into your room and delivering the news, singing and dancing.

Sounds a bit drastic to me!
That does sound drastic but maybe fun
It was the bit in the middle that scared me - the stopping and restarting heart bit. What if the bloody thing WON'T restart!
But apparently thats for an arrythmnia - mine is something different. Don

Is that the medical term for the suffering of uncontrollable twitching?

Yeah it's not too bad now.
I have to take beta blockers and another tablet to keep my blood pressure down but apart from that all is fine.

Superventriculartachycardia - a fast heartbeart
An ectopic heartbeat - meaning a extra little beat between the main beats, and then a pause
and a slight heart murmur
coupled with a family history of heart problems, doctor said individually these things don't add up to much, but given that I've got all three together, plus the family history, they think I should see a cardiologist.
We'll see what they guy has to say when I get there. Not overly worried at the mo

Its a good thing they have spotted it JoC a lot of people have serious heart attacks because these things havent been spotted so im sure they will get you sorted out. There is a big family history of heart probs in my dads side of the family and i had a few tests recently due to pains in my chest and down my arm but luckily they didnt see anything wrong
I had some chest pains and stuff last year, though as expected it was related to anxiety. Nevertheless it was not a fun experience and I don't wish heart problems on anyone. Amazing what stress can do
