What Treatment Should I Undergo For My Heart Problem ?

I am a 48 yr old woman with heart palpitations for about 3 weeks, this has been going on. I went to emergency had blood work done and ekg ... nothing wrong. I am a diabetic..insulin dependent (Lantus) 22 units one time daily. 5/8 150 pounds. I have no shortness of breath , I again had a physical blood work fine...low on vitamin D. I feel like I am having some systoms of heart stuff, but is it in my mind? Dr did put me on Atenolol til she can rectify situation, stress test done on 4/30/11, no results yet. I am worried.

Hi
Welcome to
Health care Magic

As the ECG is normal nothing to worry... insulin is not related to palpitations..
atenolol will reduce the palpitations.. just get your thyroid profile done to rule out thyroid
disorders.. take care
