Thank you so much for sharing! I have had unknown heart flutters & arrhythmia s in the last 4 months , usually after I am coming off of a stressful day at work or intense workout . Now I am very fit- do lots of cardio & weight training-great stats in my CBC blood work. No changes to routine or health. My internist prescribed a low dose losartan - to prevent stroke & wanted me to take anti anxiety as he believed my stressful lifestyle my inability to cope the cause. I certainly didn't feel like I wasn't coping. Just wanted to know what the heck was happening. So after a serious long lasting intermittent arrhythmia I went to the ER with no findings but to see a cardiologist. After ,MRI , stress test, echocardiogram, I thus far have a very healthy heart . Now - I HAVE started to have strong peri menopause symptoms in the last few months , including hot flashes. Tomorrow, I see the cardiologist for my final assessment after wearing a 30 day event monitor . I hope he listens & incorporates my hormone imbalance!
