Palpitations

I take a beta blocker for irregular heart rhythm and it seems to work fine for me. Cardioversion or shocking the heart is used when drugs are not helping.

I had an echocardiogram to look at my occasional 'rushing' in my chest - it was the Mitral Valve causing the problem but they don't want to do anything about it yet as its not 'bad enough' sounds scary I wonder what 'bad enough' would feel like. Apparently its good old Lupus again affecting connective tissue. I have beta blockers meantime an its Ok I juts sit down till it stops.

You need a referral to cardiology, sooner rather than later. I have atrial fibrillation (irregular heart beat) and I'm prescribed a beta blocker and warfarin to help prevent stroke (caused by the clots you refer to)

I had mine monitored for a week. Asked dopey girl who handed to me how to sleep. She suggested putting under pillow... Solved problem by putting my "bum bag" on over my nightie.
Eventual hospital appointment was told it was a benign kind of palpitation called an "ectopic beat".
Your doctor should be referring you to cardiology consultant.
In the meantime, I guess, stay off the wine.

OH has heart rhythm problems. I am glad that you have had the 24 hour monitor so a proper diagnosis can be made. I think that all the arrhythmias are made worse by alcohol and caffeine. OH steers clear of them completely.

OH is on a drug to control his problems, as well as an anticoagulant.
