I Have Been Experiencing Heart Beats Fast When Bending Over, Please Help
Hi am 26, 210pounds and 5 feet 2 inches and i've been experiencing heart problems since I've been pregnant with my daughter and this has been 3 years now. When I was pregnant with her my heart started beating fast it was 220 beats per minute. Since then my heart been skipping beats at random times. When i'm exercising sometimes my heart will skip beats and afterward I feel awful. Also when I bend over sometimes not all the time my heart starts beating fast. I've been tested ( i had 2 echos done and 2 ECG\

Thanks for the query. Are your sure that it is beating at 220/min?! rates that high will go in favour of atrial flutter but it is a life threatening condition. You need to undergo 24 hours haluter, random ECHO and ECG is of very little use. Also get a your thyroid profile tested. Have a healthy living
