I have searched and found a lot of stuff on this but i just wanted to
share with you all what has been going on the past few days. To start
things off I'm a 26 male overweight with a bad diet and no excercise.
The past few days I have been getting hard heartbeats along with
skipped beats and chest pains. I went to the after hours lastnight and
they ran an ECG which was fine cept for a high heart rate, they also
ran a blood test which I will find out soon on. Seems like I have a
lot of anxiety as well, seems like all day long my palms sweat and
sometimes clammy, also I'm constantly thinking/worrying about what is
wrong with me more now that these are here. I just hope it is just
anxiety and that it is getting worse instead of the heart. I tried
dealing with anxiety on my own but I can't seem to get rid of it, this
sure isn't helping. Also am not active during the day as I sit down in
front of a computer at work, so easy to notice the heart and more time
to worry. Just wondering if anxiety or constant worry can cause
constant palpitations and palm sweats all day? I wouldn't say I panic
at all, but always worrying about what is going on with my health. I'm
not too happy at the job I do but it is paying the bills. Seems like I
always stress about my job and one co-worker here that won't do his
work most of the time. I have bad road rage so that doesn't help. All
of this I want to control but can't for some reason. Sorry for the
long rant but maybe someone can tell me a little bit about these
annoying palpitations.

Thank you all,
