Dr. Gupta! You have been a lifesaver! For the past six months, I've been experiencing true peace and happiness. All my palpations disappeared after following your advices!!!You are a Heaven-sent Doctor! God bless you exceedingly!
@@hewnajavee4466 Drink lots of water especially when you wake up in the morning. Have a big bottle of water next to your bed and before you have breakfast drink lots of water it helps trust me! I drank 1 gallon of water from morning till afternoon and my palps have gone!!
@@hewnajavee4466 I started drinking coconut water and eating bananas regularly. I also take magnesium glycinate pills whenever my anxiety peaks. It brings me so much calm. You can give it a try.
Alcohol is absolutely what has caused my heart woes, with Stress a close second. Quitting alcohol all together has made a massive difference. I know stress is the next thing to work on as any little bit of struggle sets off my poor dear heart. (I have Afib). Thank you for being so up-front about alcohol, it seems doctors and people in general are too polite to talk about just how damaging and serious it is. Thank you 🙏🏻🙏🏻
I'm only 17 and I've recently found your videos two days ago Dr. Gupta And your videos have given so much reassurance about my palpitations. I was freaking out to the point that I consistently searched up heart problems and heart attack symptoms and the whole 9 yards, Scaring myself even more to where I think Im going to die. This is my first palpitation experience and I am more than happy to have found your videos. You are a blessing Doc.
Thank you for all this advice, I had heart palpitations, which came on suddenly, and caused me a great deal of panic, thinking I was going to die. I did a quick trip to the local hospital. Anyway after seeing a heart specialist, who said my heart was quite ok, but he recommended blood thinners and something to slow the heart down. The one you did on Magnesium and how important it is, was most interesting, so I bought some tablets and after about 5 days the palpitations started to settle down and disappeared, and now 3 months later there has been no sign of them. I haven't taken the blood thinners or any other medication, I am back to normal as before all this started. My problem started after drinking White wine and coffee during the evening for several nights with a friend, anyway no more wine or coffee. Thank you so much for your videos, they are so good. Cheers, Howard B
you've given me more information than the 4 doctors i went to for tests and answers. "you're okay, you're healthy, nothing's wrong with you" just isn't good enough when i can't sleep, can't concentrate, can't function throughout a day because of these palpitations. i just wanted to know WHY they were happening. thank you for the information. thank you for caring for people like me.
doctor your are the best thing that ever happened to us people who need to listen to you about what to do with our lives thank you so much and may god bless you in every and each step you take in life
This doctor is so calm and so reassuring and so caring. I wish other doctors would be like him. He actually listens and is very helpful whereas a lot of other doctors do not listen. Mine never listened to my complaints and when i said the Lisinopril has bad side effects he said i was not impressing him by my knowledge! I will never ever go back to him again! I'm glad he fired me!
These videos are so helpful, because most doctors don't believe that diet or lifestyle make a big difference. I truly appreciate all of your videos and topics on heart health!
Your advice has helped me so much! I had a cardiac ablation for SVT about 7 weeks ago and I feel like it has made my heart more sensitive somehow and I have more pvcs. Giving up caffeine has helped a ton! I had two glasses of white wine the other night later in the evening and not only did it give me bad heartburn but my etopics were off the charts the whole next day and I had no idea why until this video! No more wine for me! Thank you again from Michigan USA
Yes, wine has sulfites in it. I can no longer drink wine. I am sad about not being able to have an occasional glass of wine but it is a small price to pay for a healthy well regulated heart. So cheers to you!
i was suffering from severe palpitation issue for more than a decade, but only came to know that caffeine plays this huge role in raising your irregular heartbeat recently . I wonder how come physicians emphasys more on medication rather to control it naturally , such as cut down the responsible ones. fortunately, i am doing as 90% better than before since i have quit to consume soda (regular or diet) tea ( even the Green tea) coffee and smoking ..... i am living a way comfortable and peaceful life . will ask people to follow this who ever are suffering with it. Thanks Dr Gupta .... you are awesome !
I have had PVC's for almost 4 decades. Watching your video on drink tonight, I was doing just about everything you advise against. Thanks for the info, and I will be making some permanent changes in my drinking habits and quitting alcohol, which I was consuming much to much of.
I'm crying right now. I thought my life was over. I've been to the doctor so many times in the last 5 months and all I've been hearing is they're not dangerous. But no one had an answer. I don't drink caffeine or carbonated drinks but I do socially drink alcohol and definitely have a lack of sleep. I kept telling them I think it's a magnesium issue and finally they listened. My mag, potassium and vitamin d levels are all low. They still hesitate to help me. Told me to do it naturally but I can't eat enough lettuce and bananas fast enough. I'll try the supplements and see how that works. I also stopped the drinking months ago (with the occasional drink here and there). Thank you for these videos. I really hope it helps because I'm so depressed so often about this.
@@georgiayoung9124 IT ABSOLUTELY WORKED! ALSO THANK YOU FOR YOUR PRAYERS. I'VE MADE SOME CHANGES AND HAVE ALSO DONE SOME RESEARCH ON HERBS THAT HAVE BEEN HELPING A GREAT DEAL.
@@stanleyatienza883 it worked for me. I also have had iron infusions because of severely low iron. I found some herbs and old remedies that have been helping me. I pray you've found an answer as well.

You are so kind Sir, to take the time out of your busy schedule, to share your knowledge,...freely, with the world. I appreciate , and deeply respect, the love and compassion you have towards your fellow brethren of the human race. Be HIGHLY blessed Sir. Thank you.
Thank you doctor from Ohio USA for taking the time to better educate me and others. I am 49 and have had palpitations for about 13-14 years. Mostly annoying really but otherwise I'm healthy. I just had a cardioversion and the palpitations came back after three days. I wish I wouldn't have but I drank a can of caffeinated soda and the next day they came back. I've decided to eat clean and take your advice in these videos. I have faith they will stop by incorporating your advice. Thanks again!
@@Wrath_Starz they did until I went back to a poor diet. Got lazy I guess. I have been slowly eating better as well as adding turmeric and magnesium. For me, a regular sleep schedule and drinking more water, as well as the better diet and supplements, are helping after a couple of months.
Thank you for sharing your knowledge about this Sanjay. When I asked my GP about palpitations I was having last year, the response was 'they are nothing to worry about'. Maybe, but that didn't mean I stopped wondering why I was getting them and if anything could be done about them. Health Education particulalry around the subject of heart disease is sorely lacking in the UK - you are providing a much needed service!
Well, my regular doctor just fired me a wk ago! He had ordered me Lisinopril for high blood pressure which i had been taking for 6 months, plus the water pill. The water pill depleted my potassium. My heart was flipping a lot for hours mainly after i ate a meal. I ended up in the ER two times in two days! Did all the tests. Ekg only showed some pac's even tho i could feel them constantly. But the blood test showed i was low on potassium. The number was 3.4 where it should have been 3.6 or at 4 best. They gave me two huge potassium pills on each nite. Second nite potassium still the same number. I went to my doctor and he at least prescribed me 7 days of potassium and another drug Losartan for the high blood pressure. I am female 68. He was very mad tho that i did not want to take the Lisinopril as i read it can cause angeodema a swelling of the tongue and throat which is an emergency.....even if you took it for ten yrs with no side effects suddenly you could have an allergic reaction. Harms the kidneys, liver and causes diabetes. I also was on a 24 hr Holter monitor, but the hospital never sent him the report so i don't know what it showed. He told me he would see me a couple more times to check and see if the Losartan worked, but then i had to find another doctor. I was supposed to see him Thurs. but i was terrified and i canceled. I am now looking for another doctor. I do have a holistic MD i am seeing next wk too., but i need a regular doctor. One should not be terrified to see their doctor. Oh, Lisinopril is made from the Brazillian Pit Viper snake who kills it's prey by lowering the blood pressure. The losartan is helping me, but i am also taking Hawthorn and hope to wean off the drug.
I forgot to say that i am still getting the flips after i eat a meal and i am now afraid to eat. I lost 3 lbs in ten days. This just started ten days ago. I would get pvc's and pac's now and then but never like this. I find sometimes i can eat a small meal like one avacado or one banana and heart won't flip, but if i eat a regular full meal my heart still flips even tho i am taking the potassium. I need another blood test to see where the potassium is, but need a doctor for that. I am looking now. After i eat my heart will flip for hours like 7-9 hours! I also stopped the Lisinopril as i read it can cause heart palpatations too.
Love this....deal with fib flutter and other v ectopy and a ectopy daily with patients. Even more so after all these jabs. ! Working on the functional medicine cert definitely want to incorporate all of this into it with a cardiac focus. This is great info and thanks for sharing.
Mrs Reddy from South Africa. Thanks 👍 Doc. I really appreciate your lessons on palpitation. I pray that we have more doctors like you. I have learnt so much. No more coffee for me. God Bless
hi doctor your videos are the best & i'm happy that you decided to take time to record these videos for all of us... i have PVC's and although i'm on metoprolol 50mg bid i still do get pvcs.. im exercising and has a healthy diet. im afraid of the pvcs and i get anxiety after them.
Thanks for another great video. and your time. your videos have helped me with my palpitations. I have had palpitations since I was a kid now 43 . have had all kinds of tests on my heart. they have never found nothing wrong with my heart. and I'm in good shape.
Thank you for all you do. I have been able to reduce my afib naturally through investigating and exploring my triggers; and your videos have helped me to do that! You are doing such INCREDIBLE work - thank you for your generosity and care for others. Be well.
Thank you so much Dr. Sanjay Gupta for the true BLEESING of your videos. They are a great help to me. I'm a 51y/o mom with h/o PVC palpitations and presently going through premenopausal symptoms. My heart goes through episodes of palpitations as I experience hot flashes. Very uncomfortable times. I take cardizem cd and toprol XL. Hope you will do a video on women, menopause and effects on the heart. 💖🙏💖
wow just like we have said for many years .. we Seventh day Adventist have followed this for a long time and some of live up to 90s and longer , of course first of foremost by Gods grace
Thank you so much for your videos. They are immensely helpful. You answered questions that I had asked my cardiologist but did not get much of a response. Very useful information!!
Well said dear. Each and every word you said is the truth . I hope other doctors think the same way as you think . The doctors only rely on the technology not on the life style and diet etc. As you said finding the cause should be the priority . I don’t believe in modern treatment and taking lots of medicines and suffering with the side affects. It doesn’t cure but only suppress the problem.After listening to your videos I have the courage to handle the situations with the doctors. I will slowly taper the medicines and will stop if necessary. I have no major problems just a minor hypertension . I am not diabetic. My cholesterol is little bit high. I don’t drink alcohol neither cola’s , juices or soft drinks . I am not overweight. Still my doctor is insisting me to take medicines for cholesterol and blood pressure. I am very thankful and grateful that you have the courage to talk openly without fear of criticism. Keep up the good work dear.
You are a Godsend. Thank you for all your help. Listening to you gives us excellent advice, and you deliver it in such an educated, commonsensical, calm way sometimes just listening to one of your videos helps them subside…….or your videos are really long :). But honestly, thank you and may God continue to bless you!
I appreciate the insight! I've def been drinking too much alcohol lately. Cut out coffee after first major palpitation and it helped a bit. Had a few crazies nights w friends and they came back. Saying goodbye to the booz for a bit!
I do appreciate ur inputs... I do respect all religions n faiths but after listening,I'm really proud n admirer of Islam.....as A BETTER WAY OF LIFE! Don't drink... Eat less... Avoid oily stuff n processed food... Active life... Be happy wot u got... Look upon less fortunates... Etc...
I really appreciate the info that you share. It is very informative and in a way that anybody can understand. I'm in the medical field, and I have palpitations from time yo time (PVCS, PACS, and lately bigeminy. Thanks again and blessings!😇
I am grateful for the important information. Thank you for providing your expertise to help others in this way. It is a gift to us. Also, I must say that your voice and speech are quite beautiful to listen to. I wish my voice was as lovely.
I get ectopics up to a week after a big night out and always thought them related but couldn't find any good explinations. I often thought it was due to excercise, which I do a lot of. It was good to hear it here and have the reasons explained. I had a holter and ultrasound and it was all good. Time to change the lifestyle! Though infrequent, mine can take my breath away and really stop me in my tracks for a split second...theyre infrequent but strong. Simple solution though which is cut down alcohol. Well explained...thank you
Someone mentioned about having pvc's as a child, and they are worried. So I want to tell them not to worry, because I am mid-50's and have had pvc's off and on since I was about ten years old. Doctors always mentioned how healthy my heart is, and not to worry about the pvc's. So, I didn't. When they flare up, (every few months, or every few years) I just try to ignore them. I exercise a lot, always have, and have worked outside all of my life, so I'm saying that I'm very fit, and there is nothing wrong with my heart. I just have a lot of pvc's, that's all. I don't use alcohol, or smoke, but I do drink coffee.
Thank you so much for posting these videos! I have anxiety disorder and have consequently been to see cardiologists due to anxiety symptoms. You really explained this well, and I feel much better knowing there are things I can do to help.
Stacie Salvo anxiety is a major factor and cause of irregular heart beats and palpitations skipped beats sometimes we have to get some help for anxiety they put me on beta blockers for a while to see if they subside
Well done your videos calm me and you always give me the answers to the questions I would have asked, I for one feel much better after I have listened to you, Thank you for the time you put in for us.
I have been researching palpitations and health disorders for over ten years. I'm very happy to have come across your videos. I think you are awesome. Just a quick question, based on what I believe is a primary cause of so many health problems. What is your take on the influence of glyphosate and MSG ? You mentioned that you think wine is worse than beer, but my understanding at this point is that both can be bad because of these two ingredients. Most doctors and even naturopathic doctors dance around this basic and major problem. You are so right about magnesium and heart palps. Works for me. But also I know that if I have anything in it with hidden msg, I will get heart palps. Keep up the great work. I'm going to follow you.
This video is very helpful, I started having extra beats three weeks ago. I started taking magnesium 600mg and started eating more healthy. I exercise 6 days a week and my bp is under control. Knowing that a lot of people suffers the same thing. This will help me a lot.
awww ur so awsome!! I have been exp these for awhile!! there very scary!! I have worn a monitor but just as u say the doc said it wasn't anything serious!! but mine feels like the skip a beat and its beating in my throat!! or it just races!! I've shared ur video with my friends! especially my daughter!!! she deals with them and she has panic attacks!! and she is pregnet!! um going to buy sum magneusum!! I think ur an angel!!! god sent u to us of the public!! bc ur just the kind of doc that I been looking for!! thank u for taking the time to share with us ur knowledge!; may God bless u sir!!!
This year I know about York! Its a lovely, not so little city with lots of historical architecture and beauty. It looks classy but friendly and fun. Christmas was especially beautiful with lots of decorations, friendly good cheer, and fun shopping. A great place to celebrate Christmas and live year round! AND, they have Dr. Sanjay Gupta! How great! 💖
My advice is to listen to these videos but also find a holistic approach. Many chiropractors practice natural medicine. My chiropractor is a Q.M.E., C.S.P. & has U.S. Dot certification. I've also learned a lot here.
Thank you doctor , I watch all of your videos but never leave a comment. Just wanted to say You are very appreciated, I hope you and the family are well.
Thank you Doc.these videos of yours have really helped me in my severe palpitations.Im only 33 and diagnosed to have a heart failure.Ive watched all you videos.
thank you very much for the topic about palpitation , please continue to help people like with your advice about health. almighty Allah will reward you abundantly,
I can't say how thankful I am for these series, I've had a holter done and and echo, and neither of those 2 doctors even mentioned that a magnesium deficiency was probably causing palpitations, they say that the cause was most certainly stress, but before they thought I had marfan, which made me so paranoid I ended up having numerous panic attacks while waiting for the scheduled echo (longest 2 weeks ever) when they discarded marfan (turns up I just had the genotype, long limbs, weak and very thin wrists, flat chest, and the thumb "test" and all that) they refer me to a psychiatrist when I told em about the panic attacks, but they never mentioned magnesium, I think they telling me about marfan but scheduling the echo 2 weeks after did cause me stress, but before that I was living on normal anxiety levels, the palpitations made me anxious I think, not the other way around, I'm going to try a magnesium rich diet along with the anxiety/stress treatment, because I've been using xanax for a month now, plus beta blockers, and doing breathing exercises without ANY palpitations relief whatsoever. Sorry for the misspellings and the grammar but english is not my mother tongue, thanks again for these series, take care!!!!
Why do I yawn a lot? I feel like I’m trying to get more oxygen. My 02 levels have always been normal. Thank you for these videos! Very helpful. Thank you!!
i have a friend with palpitations and i just look up something to stop it and came across you , now i send it to her . hope it help her . i dont have it and i feel relax
You are an excellent doctor and a super person!! Shame I live very far in Venezuela, otherwise I would be your patient. Thank you very much for your videos!!!

Hello, I love your videos
Hi sir.. how u overcome your palpitations..??
Thank you for all you do. I have been able to reduce my afib naturally through investigating and exploring my triggers; and your videos have helped me to do that! You are doing such INCREDIBLE work - thank you for your generosity and care for others. Be well.
Thank you for these wise, compassionate, reassuring videos, Dr.

You are a hero! You have given me so much PEACE! Thank you
Thank you so much Dr. Sanjay Gupta for the true BLEESING of your videos. They are a great help to me. I'm a 51y/o mom with h/o PVC palpitations and presently going through premenopausal symptoms. My heart goes through episodes of palpitations as I experience hot flashes. Very uncomfortable times. I take cardizem cd and toprol XL. Hope you will do a video on women, menopause and effects on the heart. 💖🙏💖
You are a hero! You are helping so many people. Thank you very kindly for your help!
Thank you so very much for all of your helpful information. You are such a kind person, truly a gift and a blessing!
wow just like we have said for many years .. we Seventh day Adventist have followed this for a long time and some of live up to 90s and longer , of course first of foremost by Gods grace
We love you. Every video is a gem.
Thank you for sharing and reminding doctor. Thank you.
Thank you so much for your videos. They are immensely helpful. You answered questions that I had asked my cardiologist but did not get much of a response. Very useful information!!
Well said dear. Each and every word you said is the truth . I hope other doctors think the same way as you think . The doctors only rely on the technology not on the life style and diet etc. As you said finding the cause should be the priority . I don’t believe in modern treatment and taking lots of medicines and suffering with the side affects. It doesn’t cure but only suppress the problem.After listening to your videos I have the courage to handle the situations with the doctors. I will slowly taper the medicines and will stop if necessary. I have no major problems just a minor hypertension . I am not diabetic. My cholesterol is little bit high. I don’t drink alcohol neither cola’s , juices or soft drinks . I am not overweight. Still my doctor is insisting me to take medicines for cholesterol and blood pressure. I am very thankful and grateful that you have the courage to talk openly without fear of criticism. Keep up the good work dear.
You are a Godsend. Thank you for all your help. Listening to you gives us excellent advice, and you deliver it in such an educated, commonsensical, calm way sometimes just listening to one of your videos helps them subside…….or your videos are really long :). But honestly, thank you and may God continue to bless you!
I appreciate the insight! I've def been drinking too much alcohol lately. Cut out coffee after first major palpitation and it helped a bit. Had a few crazies nights w friends and they came back. Saying goodbye to the booz for a bit!
I do appreciate ur inputs...
I do respect all religions n faiths but after listening,I'm really proud n admirer of Islam.....as
A BETTER WAY OF LIFE!
Don't drink...
Eat less...
Avoid oily stuff n processed food...
Active life...
Be happy wot u got...
Look upon less fortunates...
Etc...
I really appreciate the info that you share. It is very informative and in a way that anybody can understand. I'm in the medical field, and I have palpitations from time yo time (PVCS, PACS, and lately bigeminy. Thanks again and blessings!😇
I am grateful for the important information. Thank you for providing your expertise to help others in this way. It is a gift to us. Also, I must say that your voice and speech are quite beautiful to listen to. I wish my voice was as lovely.
I get ectopics up to a week after a big night out and always thought them related but couldn't find any good explinations. I often thought it was due to excercise, which I do a lot of. It was good to hear it here and have the reasons explained. I had a holter and ultrasound and it was all good. Time to change the lifestyle! Though infrequent, mine can take my breath away and really stop me in my tracks for a split second...theyre infrequent but strong. Simple solution though which is cut down alcohol. Well explained...thank you
Someone mentioned about having pvc's as a child, and they are worried. So I want to tell them not to worry, because I am mid-50's and have had pvc's off and on since I was about ten years old. Doctors always mentioned how healthy my heart is, and not to worry about the pvc's. So, I didn't. When they flare up, (every few months, or every few years) I just try to ignore them. I exercise a lot, always have, and have worked outside all of my life, so I'm saying that I'm very fit, and there is nothing wrong with my heart. I just have a lot of pvc's, that's all. I don't use alcohol, or smoke, but I do drink coffee.
Trevor Jameson Thanks Trevor!
That makes so much sense. (Loss of mg through certian drinks) Thank you for this link
Wow! Thanks for putting the issue of my skipping beats in perspective.
Thank you so much for posting these videos! I have anxiety disorder and have consequently been to see cardiologists due to anxiety symptoms. You really explained this well, and I feel much better knowing there are things I can do to help.
Stacie Salvo anxiety is a major factor and cause of irregular heart beats and palpitations skipped beats sometimes we have to get some help for anxiety they put me on beta blockers for a while to see if they subside
@@johnnyflores1978 Hi did the beta blockers work brother ?
This is great advice and it has been a huge help to me
Well done your videos calm me and you always give me the answers to the questions I would have asked, I for one feel much better after I have listened to you, Thank you for the time you put in for us.
you are amazing man!
+Death aww thank you:-)
Gosh,I had no idea that carbonated drunks could cause palpitations! Thank you so much. ❤
I have been researching palpitations and health disorders for over ten years. I'm very happy to have come across your videos. I think you are awesome. Just a quick question, based on what I believe is a primary cause of so many health problems. What is your take on the influence of glyphosate and MSG ? You mentioned that you think wine is worse than beer, but my understanding at this point is that both can be bad because of these two ingredients. Most doctors and even naturopathic doctors dance around this basic and major problem. You are so right about magnesium and heart palps. Works for me. But also I know that if I have anything in it with hidden msg, I will get heart palps. Keep up the great work. I'm going to follow you.
KCR he has another video on diet and heart palpitations and stated that msg is a known cause for palps as well!
This video is very helpful, I started having extra beats three weeks ago. I started taking magnesium 600mg and started eating more healthy. I exercise 6 days a week and my bp is under control. Knowing that a lot of people suffers the same thing. This will help me a lot.
wonderful!
awww ur so awsome!! I have been exp these for awhile!! there very scary!! I have worn a monitor but just as u say the doc said it wasn't anything serious!! but mine feels like the skip a beat and its beating in my throat!! or it just races!! I've shared ur video with my friends! especially my daughter!!! she deals with them and she has panic attacks!! and she is pregnet!! um going to buy sum magneusum!! I think ur an angel!!! god sent u to us of the public!! bc ur just the kind of doc that I been looking for!! thank u for taking the time to share with us ur knowledge!; may God bless u sir!!!
Man, you are great. Thank you for doing these videos.
This year I know about York! Its a lovely, not so little city with lots of historical architecture and beauty. It looks classy but friendly and fun. Christmas was especially beautiful with lots of decorations, friendly good cheer, and fun shopping. A great place to celebrate Christmas and live year round! AND, they have Dr. Sanjay Gupta! How great! 💖
My advice is to listen to these videos but also find a holistic approach. Many chiropractors practice natural medicine. My chiropractor is a Q.M.E., C.S.P. & has U.S. Dot certification.
I've also learned a lot here.
Thank you doctor , I watch all of your videos but never leave a comment. Just wanted to say You are very appreciated, I hope you and the family are well.
Thank you for all the information, it helped me lots with my pulpitiation :) You are a very great doctor!
+LittleLouie thank you:-)

Great video, very informative and makes a lot of sense (as do your other videos). Much appreciated.
I cling to every video you make!!! Thank you!!!
This is a wonderful series. Thank you.
Thank you Doc.these videos of yours have really helped me in my severe palpitations.Im only 33 and diagnosed to have a heart failure.Ive watched all you videos.
Thanks chris hope you feel better soon
Thank you so much!! I really needed this today!!
Thank You , from Philippines. Informative
Your videos are most helpful, so thank you!
I knew a 20yr old kid who died from energy drinks. Seriously, that's all he drank and had a heart attack
So glad I found you! So helpful!!
Thank you, this series of videos has been extremely informative, I will start by àdding a magnesium supplement and adjusting diet etc
Thank you, Doctor. Your communication is clear will surely help me.
My heart races with wine and coffee! You are totally right!!
God bless you Doctor Gupta . You are a tremendous help . Thank you x
White wine and pvc pac beats??? Bang on for me. Sad reality...need wine, don’t like its effects! Thank you doctor. ❤️
thank you very much for the topic about palpitation , please continue to help people like with your advice about health. almighty Allah will reward you abundantly,
I can't say how thankful I am for these series, I've had a holter done and and echo, and neither of those 2 doctors even mentioned that a magnesium deficiency was probably causing palpitations, they say that the cause was most certainly stress, but before they thought I had marfan, which made me so paranoid I ended up having numerous panic attacks while waiting for the scheduled echo (longest 2 weeks ever) when they discarded marfan (turns up I just had the genotype, long limbs, weak and very thin wrists, flat chest, and the thumb "test" and all that) they refer me to a psychiatrist when I told em about the panic attacks, but they never mentioned magnesium, I think they telling me about marfan but scheduling the echo 2 weeks after did cause me stress, but before that I was living on normal anxiety levels, the palpitations made me anxious I think, not the other way around, I'm going to try a magnesium rich diet along with the anxiety/stress treatment, because I've been using xanax for a month now, plus beta blockers, and doing breathing exercises without ANY palpitations relief whatsoever. Sorry for the misspellings and the grammar but english is not my mother tongue, thanks again for these series, take care!!!!
thanks oscar - do let me know how you get on
Wow you were God sent. Took your advice and it worked.
