I'm Wondering If It's My Heart..............
Posted: 07-27-04 14:03pm

Hi,
i recently have been having weird sensations when I lay down at night. This does not occur every night, but it is certainly concerning me. When I lay down, my heart feels like it has did a "flip flop" inside. Then often, my heart will race and I will feel "cold". This only does this at night. Sometimes I have a rapid heartbeat during the day. Has anyone ever had this happen? It's sorta making me a little freaked out. Confused Confused

My husband has the exact same thing. When he gets it bad, I can press my ear up to his chest and hear his heart skip a beat. Its scary, but not dangerous for him. The doctor says its mild heart palpitations, or impurities in the rhythm. He has a fast heartbeat too, sometimes up to 120 resting. Doc said to walk 30 mins a day and not run.

Question your not alone. I have those symptoms too and some more. I have mitral valve prolapse w/ regurgitation and will be getting a repair soon. Those symptoms that you have are what I get usually only when laying down. Not sure why. I just know that when my heart does its flip-flops then races I get very cold also. Hopefully yours is nothing much but something that just happens once in a while.

I started out with heart palutations years ago ,,now I have them only once in a while but I do have tightening in my chest all the time and it has been going on for a year now and it is getting to the place it is more than I can handle it wakes me up at night so far I don't have shortness of breath but I do tire easy. I feel better when I work hard in the yard til I nearly drop, but the tightness is getting more servere MY Hemodynamic report says my CI 2.4 CO 5.0 so what does this mean
