Why!

[onebreathatatime]

I just finished eating my lunch, sitting here at work then I get this feeling of a air/pause in the centre of my chest, I think it was a palp, but I couldn't wait to see what would happen so I started to get up from my desk, as I felt the need to get up and go. I ended up not leaving my office and took some deep breaths to calm down! I hate this... I don't understand why they happen at the most random of times?

I get this all the time it's like it's hallow isn't it? I hate it a lot of the time I think it's gas

Does it feel like it's in the middle of your chest but something starts low where the ribs connect?

I get this also, it's like my heart went a little fast over a speed bump and hit air. stinks.......................

[worriedmummy85]

Yeah and it feels like its stuck and that you can feel every beat through this hollow feeling

[onebreathatatime]

It scares me.. and now I feel edgy!

[worriedmummy85]

Try not to worry about it I know it's easier said than done but it will make it worse are you stressed out about anything?

I am being set up with a 48 Holter Monitor on Tuesday and feeling anxious about it. :s

[worriedmummy85]

Are you scared it will show something? Have you had any other heart tests done?

[onebreathatatime]

I am scared it will show something, the main reason I am having it done is to try and capture the heart palps. I have had 2 ecg's done in the past when I have gone to ER, which came back normal. I just feel that I will be anxious the whole time which could cause something.

[worriedmummy85]

If it shows something you will then get treated for it so then there will be nothing to worry about Hun try not to think about it I bet when you get it on you will be just fine

[onebreathatatime]

I hope so, have you had this done?

[worriedmummy85]

No I haven't I do get palps but not very often to be honest so I don't think I qualify for one

[onebreathatatime]

I wish mine weren't that often! lol
