So, I’ve had heart palpitations ongoing for about 3 years. I’ve had ekg, 24 hour cardiac monitoring, 4 week monitoring and an echo. I’ve gone to my PCP and a cardiologist. Cardiologist said it was Covid. No one ever tested my ferritin and come to find out my ferritin was 13. Hemoglobin normal. I’ve started on oral iron over a month ago. Plus I’m going through peri menopause. You really have to be your own advocate. Thank you Dr. Gupta for putting this information out there for people. I think practitioners are just so busy and don’t listen to what you have to say. My complaints were fatigue, heart palpitations and anxiety. Hopefully I am on the road to recovery.
@@jeff15 I still have heart palpitations. My ferritin has risen to 34 but I’ve read that heart palpitations stop when at 50. We will see. I am continuing taking my iron. If that doesn’t work then I’m guessing it’s Covid related but I’m not completely sure. I hope all is well with you
@AngelaJones2433 Sorry to hear that. I've been on a bad insomnia for 2 months due to a really bad anxiety and stress. Then, I recently started to have heart palpitations. I am guessing since I am not sleeping well or not at all with high level of anxiety, it's why it started. Just went to see a cardiologist few days ago and fished my 48hr heart monitor. I have followed up with a stress test and echo. Hopefully I can get help. Thanks.
This guy is truly amazing and a godsend for people who cannot afford private healthcare or expensive private consultations and tests. He certainly seems a very genuine and down to earth guy and is sharing his knowledge that he was privileged to obtain and master for no reward. If only there was more people (medical professions i mean) like him that really do care . You seem a good person Sanjay and everyone that watches your video genuinely thank you from the "bottom of their heart"
Having had palpitations for 54 years on and off, this was the most comprehensive and wonderful insight into the possible causes and expected tests in connection with this condition. Thank you.
Why can't all doctors be like you most just tell you what you want to hear and don't do much tests. Bless you for good advice to people with these symptoms.
I wish that all doctors were this helpful, I have been suffering with skipped heart ( palpitations ) for about 5 years but has got a lot worse the past 3 months and suffer light headedness along with it, had a 24 hour ecg and have detected extra heart beats, still waiting for a heart scan but watching you is so reassuring, thank you

Hi Dear. How are you feeling now.? Has it gone? I got a panic attack month ago that raced my BPM to 160. Since then palpitations lasted intermittantly for 20 days ranging 110/120-130 bpm. Got my Holter test, ecg and echo done. Cardiologist found no ailment, no blockage, nthg. Stress and anxiety was the reason. Today mid June i still get 130 bpm once a day with fluttering of stomach and neck. Got covid test done twice , and was ngtv. Intermittant tachycardia noted. Will it gradually recede or keep happening occasionally as ripple effect ??? What's your take ? It has mentally terrified me more. 🤧😪

God’s always around, but our health is our responsibility and i agree it’s amazing we have Dr. Gupta as a resource and certainly God is working through him. God bless ya
Thank you so much for explaining so clearly and with so much empathy. Your videos are extremely helpful. It would be fantastic if doctors from every area of medicine could educate people like this. Your work is very much appreciated.
wow!! amazing. i greatly appreciative. i have had almost every single one of those tests done. and the palpitatikms havent been caught on a any of them. my heart is structurally perfect is what ive been told.
I was diagnosed of sinus tachycardia about a month ago after the demised of my mom and Aunt,it has been so unbearable for me,with the pain in my chest and and palpitations that won't go away.my world was becoming dark until I found your Vlog Dr Sanjay Gupta you are such an amazing cardiologist who knows what he is doing.may God reward you for the knowledge shared.I have done series of test and they told me my heart is normal but still I'm not convinced because this uneasiness has robbed me off my normal day life.
Hello I diagnose with sinus tachycardia what did you do because according to may doctor all may laboratory lab is all normal and may 2D echo is normal too..I hope you answer me.Thank you

I found your you tube channel last night and you give so much information. I appreciate you doing this. I have AFib and have for years and trying to decide if I should do the ablation but if it comes back I can’t see having it. I used to have an episode about one a month but now one every two to three weeks. I only take the blood thinner when I start an episode and if it last longer than 24 hours I take another pill. It usually last about 12 hours. Thank you again Dr Rupta.
Again...thank you for this information..so helpful that you explain these tests that doctors never explain. Just hearing your explanations keeps us from worrying.

Doc. I sometimes miss what you are saying due to your accent. Please post to my response here a list of tests I need taken. I have an enlarged left ventrical
I've got to say, these videos help me greatly in terms of giving me a bit more knowledge. I was diagnosed with G.A.D at 9 years old, and was put on citalopram to help the panic attacks. Around 20 I started having different sorts of palipitations, the most worrying come in the form of very random erratic beats that very rarely happen. They happen anywhere from a few times a month, to only once in possibly a year or two, but they're crippling and have caused me to black out once recently. As of yet I have not found the reason after having done an event monitor and a stress test, as they only happen at random times, though I'm told I do have pac's and sinus tachycardia. My next appointment is on the 18th and I plan to use some of the information I've learned here in hopes of finding out whats happening. Thank you so much.
Elaine McKechnie. Dr Sanjay Gupta has the same ear lobes as the Goddess of Mercy and Compassion. So you are not far off when you say he may be an angel.
My PVCs were caught on a ECG and my doctor said nothing was wrong. And I was having them bad.. And I've had ALL the blood work you had suggested. Thanks this video helped a lot to ease my mind hearing it from a cardiologist.

Thank u. Very enlightening. Your'e feeding us truthful info to fully understand our bodies and what to do to check them. It lessens my confusions and anxiety with my heart and digestive issues. More power. Godbless u Dr. Sanjay.
Been watching all of your videos on palpitations. My blood work is good as well as a ekg looked normal. Next is the halter monitor. Thanks for all the great information Dr🙏🙏
Dear Dr. Gupta, I love your videos! You have such a calming voice and tone, and you cover topics so thoroughly. Thank you so much for your very helpful videos. I wish I had you for my cardiologist. 😊. Anyway, I just had a ultrasound of my heart to monitor a bulge in my ascending aorta. The good news is that it hasn’t grown since last year which has given me hope. And the cardiologist said I had a strong heart. Also very reassuring because for the last 3 years I’ve had a lot of issues with my heart and chest pain. And, I’ve had a lot of tests which all came back good. I’ve had high blood pressure since my teens, and open heart surgery at 42. The doctors only gave me 5 years to live 18 years ago. I attribute the fact that I’m still alive to a cardiologist named Dr. Stephen Sinatra whose guidance I followed on supplements and nutrition as well as others. So, my blood pressure is very unstable. It can go from 120/70 to 260/140 or higher depending on situations and unknown factors. I didn’t have a heart attack, and I’ve always been told that my heart is strong. My resting heart rate has always been in the low 60’s, perfect. But, my heart has become very reactive in the last 3 years. A lot of issues have calmed down, but I’m dealing with my heart rate going from being low at times and high at times which is confusing. I do have 3 nodules on my thyroid, but the doctor checked my thyroid, and said it was good. I go between sweating easily some days to being cold on others especially my hands. Sometimes on the treadmill when I’m having low heart rate numbers 66 when standing, 50 sitting, and 46 when laying down I can only get my heart rate up to 85 at 3 miles an hour , but when I’m having higher numbers 58 laying down, 68-70 sitting, 80 standing my heart rate goes up to 128 or so at 3 miles an hour. My ability to exercise isn’t an issue. I don’t have any symptoms when exercising at the higher or lower rates, but when my heart rate goes into the 40’s I know it because my chest feels heavy and it’s harder to breathe only on my back with my head cocked forward. I don’t have the problem breathing on my sides or the chest heaviness. The chest heaviness is only when standing. What do you think about this? The symptoms seem to me to be thyroid related, but I’ve had it checked twice, and the doctor says it’s fine. However, a couple of years ago a different doctor said my thyroid was elevated; but a couple of months later, she said it was fine. Could the thyroid nodules be causing me to go between hyper and hypo? Lastly, as I said, in the last 3 years, my heart has been reactive, and I’ve been dealing with palpitations that come and go. Can a low and high thyroid issue cause palpitations? I’m sorry this is long, but I thought some background was important. My diet is all organic, no sugar, low carbs, and my supplements target cardiac issues as well as inflammation and liver support. I look forward to hearing from you. Thank you for all that you do to help people, Bambi

Thanks you so much for this information. I can not express how grateful I am for this. I have been told I have AF and they said I would have a stroke if I did not take their pills. I have been living in fear since. Every time my heart races of jumps I think I am going to have a stroke. It has been so incredibly stressful. Yet, I have not been able to see a cardiologist. Can you please do a video on Pradaxa and other medications being prescribed by doctors.

Thank you. I’m having my palpations only after eating high carbohydrates like 50-80 grams. But it doesn’t happen every time. Occasionally (once a month) I get chest pains right where we put our hand when saying the pledge of allegiance. I was supposed to do a bunch of tests that cost me a few thousand dollars after my insurance paid their part. Now I can go back and ask them to do the others you listed first.
I read that eating makes all the blood go to the digestion and that could be why. Controversially it said that coffee after eating widens the vessels allow the blood to flow easier to the rest of the body whilst aiding digestion, I have no idea if this is medically sound but having given up coffee I resumed one (not strong) coffee without sugar with breakfast and it worked for me. It also worked for me that I stood and walked about after eating - so take your pick!
What is the reason a doctor would order a nuclear stress test for palpitations instead of a stress echo? Thank you for these videos. You are very generous with your time and expertise. Please know you are appreciated!
I wish my doctor had explained the event monitor like you just did. They basically told me to only press the record button if I was having really extreme symptoms, but at that point I had been having palpitations for two months, so I’ve grown accustomed to the frequency and severity. Basically I never pressed the button because even when I couldn’t breathe for minutes at a time, it wasn’t anything out of the ordinary. No wonder they told me it was fine. But then also they told me everything was fine with my echo, but looking at the report a week later I see they say tricuspid regurgitation and dilation of the left atrium. Very disappointed in my doctor, I wish they all could be as detail oriented and knowledgeable as you.
I always have a high pulse when I have my pulse taken. i have normal blood pressure and had an ecg when having palpitations 116 bpm the result was sinus tach. i was put on a 24 hour monitor and I had no events to report on this partic day. I have noticed that the times when i have had more severe palpitations has been when i have drunk alcohol and eaten a heavy meal before sleep. It seems as though i get to sleep initially ok for a couple of hours and wake up with the elevated heart rate and can't get back to sleep because of the elevated heart rate. I am too anxious to take my own pulse when suffering these episodes. I have suffered from health anxiety for many years. Obviously not drinking any alcohol seems sensible but I just wanted to know what you would do in my position. I was interested in what you said on the video regarding the fact that from my understanding you would not have requested a 24 hr test for me as I had already had qan ecg during tachycardia which came back as sinus tach. Please help I don't know what to do. Ty so much for the videos extremely informative I also had my thyroid function tested and normal levels were found. i have been prescribed beta blockers but as of yet have not started taking them as i still have not had the results of the 24 hour test.
Thank you for all your videos! I just had what felt like 10 palpitations after one another, really scary, been having them for years, I feel like my doctor isn’t taking me seriously, had an ECG because I’ve had chest pains too but as it came back clear they’re putting it down to ‘anxiety’
1. Ecg- should be done when having palpations for proper results. If the ecg is good while having palpitation, then you don't have heart problem. 2. Blood test like a blood count 3. Thyroid function test, ...... 4. U..... catacol... 5. Eventracorder 6. Eco cardigram 7. Stress test 8. Stress eco cardigram (best) 9. Angiogram

Could you do a video on how long ectopic heartbeats can last for? I have runs that last for 1 to 4 weeks non stop! My cardiologist says the heart can take time to reset. It's so good when it goes back to a normal rhythm. I know alcohol doesn't help in the long run but it helps in the evening when it's bothering me. Thanks for the videos, I've watched them all! FYI I used to have SVT before an ablation 3 years ago.
Great information I wrote everything down to ask my Electrophysiologist. What other questions should I ask before making a decision on doing an ablation?
Thank you so much, I get weird scary high heart rate, and can’t even move, they don’t last long about 5 minutes, but I now have palpitations constantly. Been to A&E 3 times, called my Gp more than 8 times for that Belt monitor, 6 months on, I am told to go private if I can’t wait 😭. Really sad as no one is listening to me. I am on Amlodaphine, Thyroxine, and was given Propranalol to use when I feel bad. My life’s turned upside down. The funny feeling comes when I am resting. I try to walk at least 5km every other day.
i have the same problem, i started having palpitation intermittently and then they became consistent all day, ecg is normal also blood tests all normal. now a doctor told me that it is due to ibs!
@@treasurehunter183hunter8 bless you, although I feel much better now after stopping Thyroxine, palpitations reduced by 70%. And now I am only on bisoprolol.
Love your lectures! So Indepth and informative. I have not found any similarly knowledgeable doctor in US unfortunately. I have terrible tachicardia/weakness/sweat especially after meals and with slight excertion, chest pain radiatibg in jaw, arm, back, PAC's and PVS's, feeling of lump in throat... Most tests accessing structural and vessel integrity are OK, monitor shows rate changes from bradicardia (46 at sleep) to tachicadria (148 - just with minimal house activities). Will probably ask to repeat stress/echo. I also listened to your Vagus nerve lectures. I suspect I have some autonomous nervous sytem disfunction. Any suggestion? Thanks!
Thanks a lot, I have Recently had PVCs , your talk was excellent, I am Specialist Physician in Canada, my Holter showed Pvcs, My ECHO was normal , I over think and fearful , I have no symptoms , how can I reach out to discuss on Whatsapp or Email. Million of thanks for this lovely talk.
Love your hairdo, Sanjay! Bedhead! Why have the ECG if you're not having palpitations then? Are there other benefits of a ECG? I refused to go to the hospital because I felt fine, I didn't want to spend a day in the Emergency Room nor leave my car in a parking lot! If I had had any symptoms I would have gone but I felt fine. I still feel fine though I'm now aware of my erratic heartbeats, palpitations, etc., and I know why its important to get it checked out. They don't happen very often. I hope my Cardiologist is as smart as you. He's also Indian, very nice though not nearly as good looking! He dresses like a million bucks though - impeccable!

How often should one get tested? I have been struggling with palpation for over 16 years. I did ECG,Holter moniter,Echocardiogram, stress test, chest Cray and they all said my heart is normal and they only saw ectopic beats. My question is can these results be changer to understand normal and how often should you be tested?
Hi Dear. How are you feeling now.? Has it gone? I got a panic attack month ago that raced my BPM to 160. Since then palpitations lasted intermittantly for 20 days ranging 110/120-130 bpm.

Is increased heart rate a heart palpitation? I've had plenty of ECC's and was told, all I have is Tachy. And they want me to give me medication. I don't take the medication, because I don't wanna know what's causing it. Do they see a deformity anywhere, have they checked all avenues regarding a cause. They'll do thyroid test, and some mineral test. But everything comes out norma. I've had two echocardiogram within the last 10 years. Then over 12 - 10 years ago I had about Two or 3 echo stress test with dyes. All they found is that my heart rate is high. I told them I know my heart is high. It happens occasionally every now and then. What's causing it? How can my heart rate be normal the majority of the time? That was the point of these test. They have no answer. It's so frustrating.
I have the kind of POTS with high blood pressure which complicates things especially salt intake which only makes my blood pressure higher. Any suggestions? Thank you so much

Today mid June i still get 130 bpm once a day with fluttering of stomach and neck. Got covid test done twice , and was ngtv. Intermittant tachycardia noted.
Will it gradually recede or keep happening occasionally as ripple effect ??? What's your take ? It has mentally terrified me more. 🤧😪

I was diagnosed of sinus tachycardia about a month ago after the demised of my mom and Aunt,it has been so unbearable for me,with the pain in my chest and and palpitations that won't go away.my world was becoming dark until I found your Vlog Dr Sanjay Gupta you are such an amazing cardiologist who knows what he is doing.may God reward you for the knowledge shared.I have done series of test and they told me my heart is normal but still I'm not convinced because this uneasiness has robbed me off my normal day life.
Same here hun, your not in this alone!
Same here 🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾🙏🏾 after a pregnancy loss.
I can assure you guys I left my worries behind me and I am absolutely doing well now
Hello I diagnose with sinus tachycardia what did you do because according to may doctor all may laboratory lab is all normal and may 2D echo is normal too..I hope you answer me.Thank you

I found your you tube channel last night and you give so much information. I appreciate you doing this. I have AFib and have for years and trying to decide if I should do the ablation but if it comes back I can’t see having it. I used to have an episode about one a month but now one every two to three weeks. I only take the blood thinner when I start an episode and if it last longer than 24 hours I take another pill. It usually last about 12 hours. Thank you again Dr Rupta.
What is your WhatsApp?
Very informative ,since. Watching your channel am doing better in anxiety. Thank you.
You are such a good doctor...n a teacher as well....God bless you!! Very helpful indeed
Again...thank you for this information..so helpful that you explain these tests that doctors never explain. Just hearing your explanations keeps us from worrying.
Thank you for all of the information! It really makes dealing with palpitations a little easier.

Doc. I sometimes miss what you are saying due to your accent. Please post to my response here a list of tests I need taken. I have an enlarged left ventrical
You are one of the best doctor.
You read the minds and calm the hearts ❤
I've got to say, these videos help me greatly in terms of giving me a bit more knowledge. I was diagnosed with G.A.D at 9 years old, and was put on citalopram to help the panic attacks. Around 20 I started having different sorts of palipitations, the most worrying come in the form of very random erratic beats that very rarely happen. They happen anywhere from a few times a month, to only once in possibly a year or two, but they're crippling and have caused me to black out once recently. As of yet I have not found the reason after having done an event monitor and a stress test, as they only happen at random times, though I'm told I do have pac's and sinus tachycardia. My next appointment is on the 18th and I plan to use some of the information I've learned here in hopes of finding out whats happening. Thank you so much.
Most informative video I have seen!
I think you may be an actual angel. Thank you for all of your videos! I do much better anxiety wise when I am informed.
Elaine McKechnie. Dr Sanjay Gupta has the same ear lobes as the Goddess of Mercy and Compassion. So you are not far off when you say he may be an angel.
Those lips are never going to cut it as an angel!
Thank You wish I knew about your channel three months ago, would have saved my heart.
Very informative video. Thank you very much for your time and expertise.
Thank you thank you thank you for your information ,your expertise ,your clear explanation... This has helped me so much....
My PVCs were caught on a ECG and my doctor said nothing was wrong. And I was having them bad.. And I've had ALL the blood work you had suggested. Thanks this video helped a lot to ease my mind hearing it from a cardiologist.

Been watching all of your videos on palpitations. My blood work is good as well as a ekg looked normal. Next is the halter monitor. Thanks for all the great information Dr🙏🙏
Dr gupta sir lot of detail information for different tests for palpitations you have suggested , nice of you thanks and good wishes 21/11/2019
Dear Dr. Gupta,
I love your videos! You have such a calming voice and tone, and you cover topics so thoroughly. Thank you so much for your very helpful videos. I wish I had you for my cardiologist. 😊. Anyway, I just had a ultrasound of my heart to monitor a bulge in my ascending aorta. The good news is that it hasn’t grown since last year which has given me hope. And the cardiologist said I had a strong heart. Also very reassuring because for the last 3 years I’ve had a lot of issues with my heart and chest pain. And, I’ve had a lot of tests which all came back good. I’ve had high blood pressure since my teens, and open heart surgery at 42. The doctors only gave me 5 years to live 18 years ago. I attribute the fact that I’m still alive to a cardiologist named Dr. Stephen Sinatra whose guidance I followed on supplements and nutrition as well as others. So, my blood pressure is very unstable. It can go from 120/70 to 260/140 or higher depending on situations and unknown factors. I didn’t have a heart attack, and I’ve always been told that my heart is strong. My resting heart rate has always been in the low 60’s, perfect. But, my heart has become very reactive in the last 3 years. A lot of issues have calmed down, but I’m dealing with my heart rate going from being low at times and high at times which is confusing. I do have 3 nodules on my thyroid, but the doctor checked my thyroid, and said it was good. I go between sweating easily some days to being cold on others especially my hands. Sometimes on the treadmill when I’m having low heart rate numbers 66 when standing, 50 sitting, and 46 when laying down I can only get my heart rate up to 85 at 3 miles an hour , but when I’m having higher numbers 58 laying down, 68-70 sitting, 80 standing my heart rate goes up to 128 or so at 3 miles an hour. My ability to exercise isn’t an issue. I don’t have any symptoms when exercising at the higher or lower rates, but when my heart rate goes into the 40’s I know it because my chest feels heavy and it’s harder to breathe only on my back with my head cocked forward. I don’t have the problem breathing on my sides or the chest heaviness. The chest heaviness is only when standing. What do you think about this? The symptoms seem to me to be thyroid related, but I’ve had it checked twice, and the doctor says it’s fine. However, a couple of years ago a different doctor said my thyroid was elevated; but a couple of months later, she said it was fine. Could the thyroid nodules be causing me to go between hyper and hypo? Lastly, as I said, in the last 3 years, my heart has been reactive, and I’ve been dealing with palpitations that come and go. Can a low and high thyroid issue cause palpitations? I’m sorry this is long, but I thought some background was important. My diet is all organic, no sugar, low carbs, and my supplements target cardiac issues as well as inflammation and liver support. I look forward to hearing from you. Thank you for all that you do to help people, Bambi

thank you!
Great information. I enjoy your videos!❤️
Thanks you so much for this information. I can not express how grateful I am for this. I have been told I have AF and they said I would have a stroke if I did not take their pills. I have been living in fear since. Every time my heart races of jumps I think I am going to have a stroke. It has been so incredibly stressful. Yet, I have not been able to see a cardiologist. Can you please do a video on Pradaxa and other medications being prescribed by doctors.
yes I will do a video on Pradaxa for you

Middle Earth, how are you doing now? Did you take the meds? How's the AF?
You’re very clear in your explanations. 👍
Thank you. I’m having my palpations only after eating high carbohydrates like 50-80 grams. But it doesn’t happen every time. Occasionally (once a month) I get chest pains right where we put our hand when saying the pledge of allegiance. I was supposed to do a bunch of tests that cost me a few thousand dollars after my insurance paid their part. Now I can go back and ask them to do the others you listed first.
I have this too but its every time I eat carbs even low ish ones everyday its awful I also have thyroid issues
I get these with dessert. I hate donuts so much. They're too delicious to resist but they make me feel terrible
Kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk
I read that eating makes all the blood go to the digestion and that could be why. Controversially it said that coffee after eating widens the vessels allow the blood to flow easier to the rest of the body whilst aiding digestion, I have no idea if this is medically sound but having given up coffee I resumed one (not strong) coffee without sugar with breakfast and it worked for me. It also worked for me that I stood and walked about after eating - so take your pick!
@@Iwantenglandback thanks. Mine have stopped just out of the blue. Haven’t changed a thing. So weird. Glad you got yours under control.
What is the reason a doctor would order a nuclear stress test for palpitations instead of a stress echo? Thank you for these videos. You are very generous with your time and expertise. Please know you are appreciated!
This and that i
Nuclear are usually done for those that can’t physically do the treadmill
I hope when we all start consulting Dr Google, we come up with educated professional advice like yours.
Very useful information! 🙏🙏🙏🙏💕
thaaaaank you so very much doc, your explanations help me understand my palpitations and is lessen my fears
Thanks Dr. Gupta for your very informative video.
god bless you Doctor
I wish my doctor had explained the event monitor like you just did. They basically told me to only press the record button if I was having really extreme symptoms, but at that point I had been having palpitations for two months, so I’ve grown accustomed to the frequency and severity. Basically I never pressed the button because even when I couldn’t breathe for minutes at a time, it wasn’t anything out of the ordinary. No wonder they told me it was fine. But then also they told me everything was fine with my echo, but looking at the report a week later I see they say tricuspid regurgitation and dilation of the left atrium. Very disappointed in my doctor, I wish they all could be as detail oriented and knowledgeable as you.
I always have a high pulse when I have my pulse taken. i have normal blood pressure and had an ecg when having palpitations 116 bpm the result was sinus tach. i was put on a 24 hour monitor and I had no events to report on this partic day. I have noticed that the times when i have had more severe palpitations has been when i have drunk alcohol and eaten a heavy meal before sleep. It seems as though i get to sleep initially ok for a couple of hours and wake up with the elevated heart rate and can't get back to sleep because of the elevated heart rate. I am too anxious to take my own pulse when suffering these episodes. I have suffered from health anxiety for many years. Obviously not drinking any alcohol seems sensible but I just wanted to know what you would do in my position. I was interested in what you said on the video regarding the fact that from my understanding you would not have requested a 24 hr test for me as I had already had qan ecg during tachycardia which came back as sinus tach. Please help I don't know what to do. Ty so much for the videos extremely informative I also had my thyroid function tested and normal levels were found. i have been prescribed beta blockers but as of yet have not started taking them as i still have not had the results of the 24 hour test.
What were you diagnosed with? How are you doing now?
How r u now??? Did you still experience palpitations??? Plz rply
Thank you for all your videos! I just had what felt like 10 palpitations after one another, really scary, been having them for years, I feel like my doctor isn’t taking me seriously, had an ECG because I’ve had chest pains too but as it came back clear they’re putting it down to ‘anxiety’
They did the same for me. I hate it
me too
This is very annoying for you.
Thank you so much Dr. Sanjay Gupta. 🙂🙏🏽💕
I really appreciate the way you explain things.
Great information Doctor 🙏
This man is a heart king 👑
Great information!
Always precious informations , thank you Dr Gupta
1. Ecg- should be done when having palpations for proper results. If the ecg is good while having palpitation, then you don't have heart problem.
2. Blood test like a blood count
3. Thyroid function test, ......
4. U..... catacol...
5. Eventracorder
6. Eco cardigram
7. Stress test
8. Stress eco cardigram (best)
9. Angiogram
You are an amazing doctor. 🙏
Dear Doc, thank you for rendering services for free online. I got a panic attack month ago that raced my BPM to 160. Since then palpitations lasted intermittantly for 20 days ranging 110/120-130 bpm. Got my Holter test, ecg and echo done. Cardiologist found no ailment, no blockage, nthg. Stress and anxiety was the reason. Today mid June i still get 130 bpm once a day with fluttering of stomach and neck. Got covid test done twice , and was ngtv. Intermittant tachycardia noted.
Will it gradually recede or keep happening occasionally as ripple effect ??? What's your take Doctor? It has mentally terrified me more. 🤧😪
How are you now?
Thank you for all the information Dr. God bless you.
God bless you doctor 👐
Awesome Dr...🙏
Could you do a video on how long ectopic heartbeats can last for? I have runs that last for 1 to 4 weeks non stop! My cardiologist says the heart can take time to reset. It's so good when it goes back to a normal rhythm. I know alcohol doesn't help in the long run but it helps in the evening when it's bothering me. Thanks for the videos, I've watched them all! FYI I used to have SVT before an ablation 3 years ago.
Great information I wrote everything down to ask my Electrophysiologist. What other questions should I ask before making a decision on doing an ablation?
Thank you so much, I get weird scary high heart rate, and can’t even move, they don’t last long about 5 minutes, but I now have palpitations constantly. Been to A&E 3 times, called my Gp more than 8 times for that Belt monitor, 6 months on, I am told to go private if I can’t wait 😭. Really sad as no one is listening to me. I am on Amlodaphine, Thyroxine, and was given Propranalol to use when I feel bad. My life’s turned upside down. The funny feeling comes when I am resting. I try to walk at least 5km every other day.
i have the same problem, i started having palpitation intermittently and then they became consistent all day, ecg is normal also blood tests all normal. now a doctor told me that it is due to ibs!
Look of my comment in the comment section it will help you
@@treasurehunter183hunter8 bless you, although I feel much better now after stopping Thyroxine, palpitations reduced by 70%. And now I am only on bisoprolol.
It might be anxiety too. I was prescribed nexito forte and it helped.
you are doing a great job!! nice work with these videos!very helpful; thank you so much
Yes 10:00 I will do the holter monitor soon I'm so exhausted 😢 I need this addressed
Love your lectures! So Indepth and informative. I have not found any similarly knowledgeable doctor in US unfortunately. I have terrible tachicardia/weakness/sweat especially after meals and with slight excertion, chest pain radiatibg in jaw, arm, back, PAC's and PVS's, feeling of lump in throat... Most tests accessing structural and vessel integrity are OK, monitor shows rate changes from bradicardia (46 at sleep) to tachicadria (148 - just with minimal house activities). Will probably ask to repeat stress/echo. I also listened to your Vagus nerve lectures. I suspect I have some autonomous nervous sytem disfunction. Any suggestion? Thanks!

Love your hairdo, Sanjay! Bedhead! Why have the ECG if you're not having palpitations then? Are there other benefits of a ECG? I refused to go to the hospital because I felt fine, I didn't want to spend a day in the Emergency Room nor leave my car in a parking lot! If I had had any symptoms I would have gone but I felt fine. I still feel fine though I'm now aware of my erratic heartbeats, palpitations, etc., and I know why its important to get it checked out. They don't happen very often. I hope my Cardiologist is as smart as you. He's also Indian, very nice though not nearly as good looking! He dresses like a million bucks though - impeccable!

How often should one get tested? I have been struggling with palpation for over 16 years. I did ECG,Holter moniter,Echocardiogram, stress test, chest Cray and they all said my heart is normal and they only saw ectopic beats. My question is can these results be changer to understand normal and how often should you be tested?

Thank you so much !
Is increased heart rate a heart palpitation?
I've had plenty of ECC's and was told, all I have is Tachy. And they want me to give me medication.
I don't take the medication, because I don't wanna know what's causing it. Do they see a deformity anywhere, have they checked all avenues regarding a cause. They'll do thyroid test, and some mineral test. But everything comes out norma. I've had two echocardiogram within the last 10 years.
Then over 12 - 10 years ago I had about Two or 3 echo stress test with dyes.
All they found is that my heart rate is high.
I told them I know my heart is high. It happens occasionally every now and then. What's causing it? How can my heart rate be normal the majority of the time? That was the point of these test. They have no answer. It's so frustrating.
I have the kind of POTS with high blood pressure which complicates things especially salt intake which only makes my blood pressure higher. Any suggestions? Thank you so much
what if some one have strong palpitations at time of echo will it affect result kindly reply
Thanks so much really helpful
