Dear Anon -
Thanks for writing and sharing your concerns. You seem to be saying that you've experienced heart palpitations for quite some time, have sought medical treatment in the past, and that the palpitations are getting worse.

Heart palpitations are common in women, and are caused by many reasons. You may find the following article helpful in better understanding the causes:

You may want to consider seeking medical advice again since the symptoms appear to be getting worse and to be increasing in frequency. There are also some signs you need to be aware of that would indicate that seeking treatment can't wait. If for any reason you experience abnormal heart beats along with chest pain, dizziness, light-headed, pain in your arm or jaw, the sensation of blacking out – please call 911. Do not wait to see if it passes.

Please keep us posted on your progress in dealing with this, and we wish you the best in finding support that will ease your concerns and your pain.

Take good care,
Pat Elliott
