Hi everyone...The past week or so I have been experiencing moments where m heart will start to race, even at rest. My HR can reach as high as 110 BPM when it is really racing.
I had a stress echo and 48 hr Holter monitor just a few months ago and all was normal, and I have EKGs almost weekly at my GP's office. I was wondering if I racing heart is common with low blood pressure. I am to begin Florinef sometime this week.
I have no chest pain with the racing heart, but sometimes I will sweat, even though I always feel cold. Anyone else ever experience anything like this? Thanks. Jess.

Use to happen to me a lot. Never found out exactly what was the cause but I do have POTS so it may be related to that. Interestingly I also were a monitor and all came back normal. Also, I think A Fib can cause that.

Hi tickled-I have POTS too, so perhaps that is a factor. And yes, isn't that weird, my monitor also came back totally normal. Thanks so much. Jess.

EMF and metal toxicity, both can cause severe variations in blood pressure and pulse. None shows up with EKG.
Only treatments of parasites, and serious detoxing of heavy metals, and avoiding as much as possible exposure to EMF and Smart Meter radiation.

Yes, sometimes I got this while on the TPN. May be from electrolyte imbalance, over or under hydration, and if you have POTS that's another cause. The hydration/electrolytes can make POTS worse, too.

Thank you Razzle-this racing heart definitely started since the TPN began, so there probably is a nexus. Jess.

Oh, just remembered....ha, amazing how much one can forget even in a year's time, LOL! Anyhow, the infusion rate being too fast for me was a common trigger for heart racing, so I had to request a slower rate for my TPN.
