Title: Update
Post by Stu M on Jul 4^th, 2007, 7:40am

Hi everyone,

Im back from my holiday/break and thought I would give you guys an update!

Whilst on holiday felt so much better, still anxious, but less skipped beats which was lovely.

I missed my beta blockers for one day while I was away and boy did I know it, got lots of skipped beats that day. So i guess that answers my previous question about beta blockers, although they dont stop them 100% for me they do keep them to a minimum I feel. Going on from that my initial low pulse rate has now risen to about 78bpm, which shows that the it must have been me getting used to the drugs that gave me such a low rate and light headedness, dizzyness etc.

Now though Im back at work, and I feel awfull again!! So there it is... Stress and anxiety must be the cause for me. Does this realisation help? Well not really I still feel bad but at least I am starting to realise that its not a coranary so I will probably not die.

So Ive got my exercise bike now (at last) and Im trying to 'chill' as much as I can and lets see what happens.

;)

Stu
