Hi,I am Dr. Prabhakar Koregol (Cardiologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I have had heart palpitation on off for about 2 years..and they recently started to come back. But now sometimes it feels as if my heart has stopped for one second and then i have feeling of anxiety in my chest. I went to the doctor and she said it was anxiety and she said to relax so i drink chamomile tea every time i go to bed and it helps me sleep but in the day the palpitations keep going. What could I take naturally or medicine to help my palpitations.

welcome to hcm ...as the palpitations are related to anxiety ..i advise that you should take antianxiety drugs as benzodiazepines group as lorazepam 0.25 mg half in morning and 1 at night ..if there is no effect in 3 or 4 daus then please add metoprolol 25 mg or propranolol 25 mg once a day but these drugs are given according to BP level ...in addition please start meditation and deep breathing relaxation ...
