I'm new here. My anxiety started about six years ago. I managed it with Xanax. Lately its been getting worse.
I wake up at night with heart palpitations, or my heart racing.
I went to a heart doctor. He put me through a series of tests. I had to wear a monitor for about three weeks. During that three weeks, I had about seven episodes that were recorded by the monitor. Four of the episodes indicated that my heart stopped beating for a few beats.
Now they have me scheduled for an angiogram. They are even talking about stents and pacemakers.
From what I have read, anxiety can cause all these problems with your heart. Should I seek help from someone else?
Thanks!
