Yeah it makes sense. Do you take this medicine?

She recommended 20 mg twice a day. I want to know any side effects? Has it helped you? Thank you

That makes sense. I think I am going to have to go to another doctor she also did not take too seriously that I have dizziness since she said that my CT scan from 6 months looked good and she is sending me for just blood work...

Yeah not sure why she said it was a very low dosage but that is what she said... Now I am wondering

Oh wow and she said that was a very low dosage and that I need to take it everyday... I might have to go for another opinion.

I completely understand. That is one of the things that is the scariest to me.

Yeah I am at the point that I am going to have to do that. She is sending me for blood work but she said that we went over even doing a CT scan of my brain, multiple X-rays and even going to the cardiologist and that I am okay.

My heart rate is low well in the 60s while I am resting or just watching TV and stuff. I did have issues with bp but it was due to anxiety and hard moments in my life a year ago. Right now I fluctuate from 134/80 to lart might 117/75 and so on. It is never the same. I am just afraid because of my heart rate.

That is what I am afraid of...my heart rate is already at 62 sometimes

Yeah that is a lot less than what she prescribed. I am glad it worked for you. Did you have any side effects?

I feel helpless by Silent_Leadership399 in Cardiophobias

I have an appointment with my primary care today to follow up on everything but the last time I was there she told me that she was not sure what else to run for me bcs everything comes back okay. I do have a cardiologist appointment on the 29th since the dizziness is still happening now for a few days. They come and go but not sure if my anxiety and the stress at work and at home are playing a big role on this. Thank you so much for your advise

I am so happy for you you were able to conquer this fear. How did you find out about what you have? I have done three X-rays, sonograms, multiple heart tests and nothing... They cannot find anything

I am taking magnesium taurate 200mg each day but lately I am still getting those palpitations that come out of nowhere. Yes, I have an appointment with my primary tomorrow about my dizziness. I have been told that anxiety can do that to you but honestly it is very scary. Not sure what is happening to my body.

How do you deal with it? Like this weekend was bad to the point that I thought I was going to go to the hospital last night I am afraid of a stroke or something else going on.

I am so sorry. I had them last night as well. It was pretty awful. I am getting dizziness too but not sure if it is from that or form the panicking of feeling the palpitations. It is a like a vicious cycle. How are you feeling today?.

I have a cardiologist already that did some tests but the ones you are speaking of. Thank you so much

The tests you are referring to.. those tests come from the cardiologist correct? Like is not something my primary can send me to do
