Hi dear forum!
Long time since I've been active here... but reading through some old things was actually helpful, feeling a bit less alone with everything.
I am wondering if anyone else here has problems with extra heartbeats/ extra systoles. It is really making me panic again right now. Have had many many many of them over the years, but it has been gone for some time as well. Now they're there non stop again since September. Especially during the evenings, it can be every 3-4 heartbeats. I have had a 24-hours ECG a couple of times (years ago) and they found up to 13.000 per day (out of 100.000 heartbeats), but apparently it's innocent? Just that I really feel so helpless in this, I have no idea why they are back now and feel so horrible sometimes (nauseous, ice cold, shaky, dizzy, feeling like I can't breath, etc probably all symptoms of panic?) that I can't eat or drink anymore and it messes up my whole system which I know just makes it worse. But it's there too when I'm not anxious so can it really be the stress? Certainly a lot is going on, started EMDR therapy about a year ago which is tough and at the moment I just feel stuck again.
Does anyone else experience these and can it really just be stress/anxiety?
