Since the EKG came back clear, I have not felt a single flutter. That was about 24 hours ago. My heart has felt like it is beating harder or maybe slightly faster than it should be for the situation... but I think I am truly overthinking it. Every moment my mind is free it checks my heart passively. So I believe naturally I will be feeling it and thinking it is beating too hard. Even in this, my anxiety slightly moves to other things. The flutter has been all but confirmed to be nothing... so the rate has increased. Anxiety is a silly beast.

My blood work came back this morning all normal. Now it is up to me if I want to go to a cardiologist to make sure. The PA I talked to even said, "if you want to". I will see how far out the apt is and if this disappears before then, I think I can let it rest.

I exercise a lot, so I am able to channel it out.  I sprained my ankle in February and am still in a rehab point. I am restarting to run a bit. I do a four mile power walk (doing the cross country skier move) and have put in a jog of increasing distance over time.  It's about half walk/half jog after two months.  Exercise helps!

Stress will do this.  The heart palpitations, but moreso the thinking.  It's all tied.   You aren't alone; it's not an easy time.  As I have had to figure it out...we have to watch what we worry about.  If something isn't in our control, and there seems to be a lot in this area, we shouldn't be putting energy into it.  Filter things down to what we can control, and we are good.

Well, I went to a quick care. BP was perfect. EKG is clear. They are pretty sure it’s just stress but referred me to cardiology to possibly wear a heart monitor for a few weeks just in case they missed anything. I feel fine outside of random flutters a few times a day. Blood was drawn to look for Kidney or liver issues. So far, so good. Probably nothing but I’ll know more down the road.
