Quick Pulse In Throat, Neck Area, Feeling Of Anxiety. Safe To Ride Roller Coasters?
Im 25 years, female. Recently I have felt fast heartbeats in my throat ( neck area). I get like a panic feeling, then it goes away. I dont have health insurance, so i have not been able to see a cardiologist for tests. Iam planning on going to Six Flags tomorrow and now I am feeling worried that I might be in danger for riding rollercosters. What advice can you give me?

Hi,
It looks more of an anxiety disorder but do get done a baseline ECG,blood tests and Thyroid function tests.And yes Health Insurance is a must for all of us including you and I hope you will get yourself a health insurance on priority!Take care.
