sounds like heart palpitations, but i'm no medical professional. sheena, where are you?
That's what I Googled last time around. It was just like that. I know sometimes my heart would skip a beat, if I wolf food down, but that's like once a a blue moon. Since this started reoccuring and only happens when I'm angry or stressed, I'm trying to calm down!! EEK!

Quote from luvkittehs :
Azn, it's an arrhythmia (or that's what it sounds like). I have it too, but I've had mine my whole life and I know it has to do with the way my heart is shaped (for lack of a better word). I've seen lots of drs. about it (esp. during my pregnancies) but in truth, it's never caused me any real problems and the vast majority of the time I don't even notice it. If it's new to you, I would probably get it checked out though.
Thanks for the HU. I'm hoping that's not what it is - it sounds really serious. When I did go to the doctors on a normal basis, they never said anything about it. I am assuming it's something they'd catch anyway.

I'll definitely keep an eye on it since it's happened about a month away from each other.

$20 for a $40 bloom cert at moolala. Saw it on h2s. Apparently it is one of those daily deal sites like plumdistrict. It comes with free shipping too. Just like before but a different deal site.

if i were you i'd go to the doc and tell them what you are experiencing, and also the history of it happening to you and what you think it may be (stress). sometimes they respond better when you point them in a direction. i would think it'd be easier for them to figure out if you told them what you are feeling as opposed to hoping they'll catch it - they probably assume you're young and healthy and there's nothing wrong!

i'm overly cautious most of the time tho. i like asking questions when i'm at the doctor's office because otherwise i'm just sitting there wondering. i have a few doctor friends so sometimes i'll ask them instead. but i am paranoid sometimes because i'd rather be safe than sorry. for example, once i went to get a physical and told the doctor i get faint sometimes, so she tested my blood for different types of anemia, and found out i was b12 deficient. it's odd to be b12 deficient when you're not vegetarian, so it's definitely a concern, and i would never have known if i didn't tell her!

oh, i didn't know that! must have missed it.

also, i remember when i emailed bloom about my order, it got processed in 2 days. they responded to my email after the order was processed. the same thing happened when i sent back a return and it wasn't processed - i emailed them and within a day the return had been processed. they emailed me after it was processed. i feel like emailing them reminds them and possibly moves you up the priority list.

but it could have also been coincedence.

Thanks for putting that on my radar. If it doesn't stop or happens again systematically for a couple of days, I will have to go to the doctors. I always feel like doctors are just out for your money and want to rush you out there. It's so hard to find a medical professional that I can truly respect and feel like they aren't just taking my money

I bought some of their concealer from dermstore. It was alright. There is better on the market though. I've used it a couple of times. I wonder if the other site has any codes or such.

Quote from azn1x6flame :
For the science/medical girls, or anyone that's experienced this in general, I have a question about when my heart beats fast for one or two beats and returns to normal. Sometimes it happens in succession 2-10 minutes and sometimes 30 miuntes or longer apart. This started happening on Sunday and is still ongoing through today.

Last time this happened was last month and it lasted 4 or so days. This usually doesn't happen to me, but for some freak reason, I feel that this is becoming more common. I would breathe in and out deeply, but mostly to no advil because the increased heart pump would happen right between in one of my breathing exercises.

I'm under a lot of stress at work and work in a stressed mood at home because I have a test I am studying for. I'm hoping this is the reason. As I drove to work today, I felt a tightening in my chest and I'm trying to relax. I try to not think about work, either when I'm at home. I generally eat very healthy. Little to no processed foods and liquids. I don't really eat out. So I don't think it's high cholesterol.

I really can't figure out the reason. Any experiences or scientific knowledge?

DH had his heat beat faster 2 years back. His doc noticed it on annual check up and then suggested to go to heart specialist. He was busy and didnt go to specialist then after 3 months it was still the same. Doc assumed it could happen for few reasons and stress could be one major reason behind it. BUT luckily after one month it got back normal so i know this could happen an go back to normal too. He never saw heart specialist in that time.

Just remember to do not consume drinks like red bull when you are still feeling that situation, it can make heart palpation even worst. DH was being checked by medical facility on his office campus. I believe them more because they dont do anything for money. It is free for employees. I would suggest you get checked. May be before you go to doctor call nurseline too , to know how severe this situation is hug

They do make really pretty compacts. I've never used their powder though.
