Further investigation by my cardiologist revealled that I have a disorder of the adrenal glands called primary Aldosteronism or Conns Syndrome. However, once the drug leaves your system (after about 20-30seconds) you feel as right as rain and are ready to go home. After many trips to the ER, I would be given a drug called adenosine which in effect, stops the hearts abnormal beats and kicks it back to a regular rhythm, although the process is a bit scary because you almost lose conciousness and feel like you are dying for a couple of seconds. I used to suffer very badly from a racing heart, an event which amost always started when I was asleep and would wake me up.

I plan on calling my doctor on Monday, but I want an idea of what it could be. Please answer me if someone has any idea. But yet again, I haven't felt dizzy so they don't prevent me from doing things. I won't go to sleep until they stop, and they worry me when I am working. I was happy and then they just started again about 2 days ago. So I stopped that and they stopped for a couple of weeks.

They did this at first and I thought it was pseudophedrine, i was taking a lot because the doctors couldn't get a cold away. They have been going on for a few weeks now. I do have a lot of stress in my life, but this worries me. I used to be a very healthy person, sick maybe twice a year. I've been on and off sick though for a couple months. In september I was diagnosed with mild gastritis and have been on liquid carafate 2-3 times daily. I'm always fine during the middle of the day and then again towards the early evening and night I go into these episodes again. I've never really been short of breath, I just take an extra breath after each time this happens. I have never felt dizzy or like I was going to faint however. It feels like my heart is skipping beats causing me to cough afterwards because I felt like I missed a breath. They start when I wake up and go on until it seems I am fully awake. I’ve also been doing research for a year now and I’m working towards getting a diagnosis, but I am a minor + afab and so its hard getting doctors to listen to you.Recently i have had these heart palpitations for hours at a time. (I am not diagnosed but im 90% sure I have POTS(I’ve been right about all the other conditions that I’ve been able to get a diagnosis for). I’m also trying to see if theyres anything I can try to make it stop or get better until I can talk to my doctor and he actually listen to me, so if you do expierence this please let me know if there’s anything I can do to help it. I’m wondering if this could be linked to POTS(some sources says it is but others say it isnt). I was told that heart palpitations being painful isnt normal but so far everyone that experiences them has told me they are and when looking it up it says that they can be. I’ve brought this up to my parents and doctor but so far only my mom will listen to me.Īs for the painful heart flutters, my doctor did listen and I had an ultra sound dont on my heart(everything was normal there) and had a heart monitor on for 2 weeks(still waiting for the results).

When I say random collapses, I mean random, its not after standing up or exercising, I’ll just be standing doing whatever and randomly I’m experiencing short extreme fatigue and collapsing to the floor. Does anyone deal with random collapses and painful heart flutters/palpitations?
