I sometimes have rapid heartbeat where I can feel it my head. At this point I take medicine for anxiety. It cames down everything.

You're definitely not the only one.

I take meds for anxiety as well, but I haven't noticed a difference with the racing heart... it's crazy, I can feel my heart race and I can feel it beat so much stronger... it's scary.

I'm not a doctor. Please take my advice as it is intended: as advice.
