Hi, i'm new here I
have had heart palps for over 15 years,,
they are getting worse,,, some that I have
are really scary, I try to live with
them,, but I am a wreck,, been to a heart
specialist,, had an eco done...The doc
says I am fine,,, I still dissagree,,, I
have about 25 episodes a day,, really
annoying,,, has anyone had this happen to
them?? And is there any herbal remedies

If the eco showed ok & you've been
getting them for 15 years my guess is that
they're stress/depression related
>>>> have you ever tried
relaxation & I mean really tried it??
Not just once or twice - natural
alternatives take awhile to work!!
You could try a yoga video/dvd with
meditation included which is what my
daughter like more than a straight
relaxation tape. Vitamins like valerian,
gingko, sam-e, 5htp (tryptophan) b
vitamins all help with stress (start one
at a time not all at once - you might a)
only need one of them & b) have a bad
reaction to one!!).

Hi missprissie, purples advice is good and
I would also look into learning cbt. I
think a combo of the two might work well
for you but it will take some time and
patience and will be worth it if you do
