no meds. no drugs. I supposedly had an anxiety attack a couple weeks ago or so, at least that's what his majesty said when he (ER doctor) gave his "expert" ahole opinion. I haven't heard of any panic attacks lasting for weeks, but whatever... bp's always normal when they check it, if my pulse were normal, I wouldn't be having palpitations...

do you smoke or drink alcohol?? both of those alter your blood pressure and heart rate, and can cause palpatations. if my asthmas bad, and i run up the stairs i get them for a few minutes then, but thats down to my asthma and smoking.

That sucks for you, debbie.. and not trying to be harsh, but I'm not asking what causes palpitations, but the bubbly feeling ones. It feels like my chest is gurgling when my heart palpitates.

yeah I'm pretty sure my throat isn't in my heart. it's down where my heart is.

It feels like my chest is gurgling when my heart palpitates. ive had bubbly feeling in my chest before, but all my ecg's have been normal, and my BP. i put it down to anxiety, you will be suprised anxiety can mimick most illnesses, and with me they were right.

well I'm going to my chiropractor tomorrow. Maybe he can suggest a doctor that'll take my broke ass w/no insurance. He also has an xray machine, maybe I can bribe him to xray to see if part of my heart is enlarged and if there's any fluid in my lungs.

an EKG, no xrays. Of course my heart wasn't palpitating when they did the EKG.

mm hmm, that's what I thought! still cute though So I've got Taurine, Hawthorne Berry, Coenzyme Q10, and vitamin C... so far nothing's been helping. My chiropractor's pretty nice, I think I can get him to give me an xray tomorrow.. err today.
