Yes, I agree that you are more vigilant towards small and unimportant symptoms.
And of course the heart being a vital organ, feeling "out of rythm" just within that might give rise to fear no matter how much you understand the nature of benign palps.
But still ...
I really believe that I have understood, quite deeply
- that they are not harmfull. They always go away. I'm not dead yet
But to me they certainly are annoying, for example when they "fire off" at night as soon as I lie down (yes, lower pulse seems to make them come easier), but also just the position lying down.
And mine (sounds like small animals inside you, right?) all too often feel as if they are "hitting a nerve" and thereby make the heart beat harder for maybe an hour or two, causing sleeplessness. And making my urine production bigger. This happens no matter how many times I think or say the mantra. "They are completely harmless ..."
But they still too often devour my sleep, the little bastards!
But thank's God they are ...
