Hi, never had to post here before. I am 41 suffer chronic back pain and reflux. Last week a cervical polyp came out down below while in the shower as I got out I passed out cold, lucky my hubby was there to lay me to the floor. I went to the doc who said my blood pressure was 130/70 he said that was low. I am usually told my bp is on the higher side but doesnt need meds. Just over a week later after dinner my heart started beating about 96 beats per minute and it was just thudding away, I felt a little dizzy and very weak. I lay down all the next day and got up and it started again, i went straight to the doc and had an ecg which she seemed ok with, my bp was 140/80. Because I also had a tight pain under my ribs she seemed to think it is stress related and put me on a short dose of xanax which calms me, however last night I had another episode. I have spent the last few days in bed and get up now and then to get stuff done but get so exhaused I have to lie down again. The pain in my tummy is getting better and I am trying to relax, does this sound like stress? I am due to go away for 4 weeks holiday to a remote place and am scared. Any ideas would be great. I didnt realize I was stressed???!!!!
