I occasionally feel an irregular heartbeat in my chest. I immediately take my pulse and it feels like i miss a couple beats and then the beats catch up, lasting only a few seconds. I first noticed the irregularity while in a pyhsically abusive relationship, 4 years ago. I went to my doctor about it and he did a ecg and hooked me to a holter monitor. The results came back that everything was fine. Ive read that stress can have an effect on the heartbeat. I try to keep stress down but i find that i get anxious over little things in everyday life. Ive been out of the bad relationship for 2 years but find that i still replay some of it over in my head. Sometimes i feel like a dark cloud follows me wherever i go. I sometimes think i should go back to my doctor, but feel like ill get the same results. I want to cure myself through meditation and relaxation techniques, not medication. help!
