My MHR Level Is Always High. How Do I Stop It?

my MHR is through the roof all the time....how do i stop it? its typical when you exercise that your heart rate goes up...but my heart always beats fast. I can just be sitting and watching TV or something and it goes really fast. i do have panic attacks and it shoots up than too....my MHR is around 204 and while i was in the hospital once it would go from 80 to 200 beats per minute . when it beats really fast it hurts sometimes. exercising is really hard because i can t keep my rate down. i don t know what to do?!?

I have had the same problem for 7 yrs now. It started with a hyperthyroid, but it has been normal for 6 yrs. I use to take beta blockers, but they made me dizzy or my muscles weak. Beta blockers is all I know to slow it down. Sometimes holding your breathe and bearing down like you are having a BM will slow it down temp. Or chewing on ice. That is all I know.

Hi,
Thanks for query,
This seems to be due to having panic attack and anxiety neurosis,
But before we stamped out panic attack,rule out any cardiac cause.
Ok and bye.
