I had my first racing heart at mid 2021 at the age of 41, ended up in the ER with a heart racing and blood pressure shot up. They xrayed my heart to make sure I didn't damage it. It was like 130 beats and slowly came down to 100 beats in like 4 hours. I did a heap of tests's and just said it was anxiety. I was on hospital for like 3 day's, because they tried to get my heart down to 50 beats for an ECHO test, but the best was 60.
This all started when I took B12 tablets, after 24 hours I felt heart fluttering, I though I was going to have heart attack, so I went to doctor, he checked and sent me home, 24 later, I felt my heart beating faster, went to hospital, they advised me to go home, then next day, I had lay in bed all day, because my heart was like beating at like 90 to 95 beats laying down flat in bed. I got up checked my heart rate it was 130 beats, I panicked and called an ambulance, then I felted my blood pressure surge, Ambulance came, and was in hospital for three days.
I had like another racing heart like 2 week later! But it came out of know where, in the morning after walking to the kitchen. Went to ER but it came down back to normal quickly and they sent me home. I also had two more racing hearts like 3 months apart after. They took like 4 to 6 hours to return to normal. They jumped to 130, and slowly with time returned to normal.
I then decided to test if the it was the B12 tablets 1000mcg Cyanocobalamin, 3 weeks after the going to ER. So I took it in morning, then bang like an hour later I was laying in bed, I started to feel anxious, I decided to lay in bed like the other night, but this time I decided to fight it, as I didn't want to go to the hospital again. That night was the worst night ever, every time I would try to go to the sleep, my heart would start racing, I would have to do deep breathing in out to slow it down. I literally couldn't sleep, because when I would nod off, it's like my nervous system would switch to one that was just overactive. My stomach felt it died that night and it was acidic for like 3 months. I also had heavy surges of heart pumps, where I felt the blood surge my veins at back of my head. I had headaches, high blood pressure, up and down for like 12 months after all this started. It slowly improved. The first three months, I would go for walks and I would have headaches, I felt like my nervous system was screwed for life. I would wake up in middle of night, heart was beating fast.
I was given Beta blockers( 3 weeks after ER), and was put on Anxiety Meds Sertraline like 9 months later. I took them like for 6 months then got off them. Still on Betablockers. I think Sertraline helped a little, but now I'm off them, I still feel good without them.
I researched cure for it.
-I went for walks everyday, got sunlight, since sunlight creates Serotonin.
-I decided to get B12 from food for the first 6 months, then slowly experimented with low does of B12 tablets I didn't have issues. I tried B12 methylcobalamin 1000mcg, and I didn't have any bad effects. Took them for like 2 months. My B12 was low at 100, when I had my anxiety attack.
- I suspect 1000mcg of Cyanocobalamin, could of had a hyper reaction to the gut? Causing an overactive sympathetic nervous system?
I'm still not 100%, I feel like my heart is a little too fast some days, like 95beats in the morning. I don't feel anxious. Blood pressure goes up sometimes.
Now I decided to remove WHEAT from my diet, get back to a health weight like a healthy BMI...75KG, currently 90KG to 95KG the last year.
I'm also going remove moldy room plasterboard soon. As I also suspect this anxiety issue, might have been caused by MOLD in the home.
So my idea of trying to cure anxiety or lessen it
-Daily exercise and sun
-Supplementation fish oil, get B12 levels up to 500p/mol ( was really low 100, they say below 500 causes issues)
-Remove mold, get better air environment
-Remove WHEAT, Mercury foods. (DETOX for 6 months) Might be Gluten destroying the gut, Pesticides in the WHEAT, Mercury in Tuna.
-Eat Organic
-Watch movies, stops the mind from thinking,
I also find laying in bed, lowers my blood pressure, heart rate, with slight incline to watch TV and play with the computer. Sitting on the seat, raises the heart rate a little and blood pressure.
So I'm basically trying to flip every rock, to fix this. I've always been a little nervous and worried a lot, intense, sometimes obsessed with certain subjects but never had an anxiety attack, blood pressure issues until I was like 42!. Crazy.
Has anyone, flipped every rock to fix anxiety? I feel that anxiety can be a mental issue, but I also feel like it's an imbalance of the body also. I'm just trying to correct the imbalance. I don't feel my issue is purely mental. I'm trying solve this problem like computer technician. Using the old trial and error method.
