If you had your heart checked out, that is what is most important. Make sure you listen to your body and talk to your dr about any & all symptoms you experience. Maybe keep a list so when you see your dr you don't forget anything. Fibro fog likes to set in especially when we have appts. LOL

Again, welcome to the family! Glad you are here!

I have palpatations when i lay down at night, for me it is a matter of consciously slowing down my breathing and my heart will follow. when i had it checked out it was said that i was a little stressed and needed meds to take care of it. the meds work well and so does the relaxation breathing at the same time. like coolmama said listen to your body and talk to your doc. sometimes major ailments can get lost in the fibro.

Fibro won't kill you, even though it may feel like it sometimes.

There is a light at the end of the tunnel -- but it's a train about to run over you.

Panic attacks and anxiety is soo HORRID!!!

I would say I have an anxiety attack at least once a week (and more sometimes if I'm really stressed out)

And, a Panic Attack probably once a month...sometimes more, sometimes less.

Either way...they are horrible and make you feel soo out of control with yourself. Not to mention if feels like your heart is going to beat right out of your chest. I can feel my heart beating throughout my ENTIRE body when I have a Panic Attack!

It's such a horrible feeling!!

I do take meds for these, but they only hold me over for soo long...eventually the attacks hit anyways!

I know caffeine is a 'no-no'.

Good luck!!
