what causes heart palpitations
hi I do not think from your symptoms that what you have said that you have terrified about to have a heart attack it is not as your symptoms happen at rest not during exertion to evaluate for palpitations you do hotter monitoring I think your symptoms mostly due to anxiety you maintain a diary and find out what are the things which disturb you or precipitate your anxiety advice for stress management note down and try to work out to correct it or ignore it walking for 30 minutes daily breathing exercises for 10 minutes twice daily do yoga for 30 minutes daily you are young so join any sporting activities you like you can listen to soft or romantic music spend quality time with your relatives and close friends share your problem with them take the help of a counselor to overcome anxiety you are suffering all these things will definitely give you relief review after two months
