Asking for Self, Female, 20 years old, Bahawalpur
I'm 20 years old and since a few days, I'm experiencing throbbing palpitations that become so severe at one moment and then become normal for next few seconds followed by another forceful palpitation after a while and is a cause of continuous anxiety as it happens at NIGHT only. I've beem having problem of rapid heart beat sometimes since past few years amd doctor told me to take INDERAL whenever I feel so. I've no medical history other than this related to it. Also I'm having seasonal allergy now a days because of wheat harvesting for which I was taking Montika 10mg daily at night that I quit because I thought it to be the cause of palpitations but the situation is samr despite the fact that I've not taken it since 3-4 days. Need medical assistance, JazakAllah!
u need to get an ecg echo and thyroid funtion tests done
from which city your are ?
Aoa. seems more likely anxiety. an ecg would be helpful though. if possible see a cardiologist in person.
Get your 24 Hour Holter test done. And consult a cardiologist. Thanks
You need to be investigated by a qualified cardiologist to rule out any cardiac problem and treatment accordingly. At the moment if you have history of allergy then Inderal is not a good choice as it aggregates the asthma. So contact a cardiologist for better management.

I got it checked from a senior cardiologist of my city few years back and he didn't suggest ecg. However I'm not taking inderal now a days because of this seasonal asthma. Thankyou!

needs ur ECG at the time of palpitations especially.it may be some rhythm abnormality
palpitations are also part of anxiety as well.
other test to be done is thyroid function test
mean while start tab.merol 25mg twice daily instead of inderal
Your heart rate/ pulse beats per minute and your BP. Do you prefer hot weather or cold? Any swelling in the neck?
Patient

My BP is always low. Systolic is always less than 105 and diastolic varies around 60-65. Heart rate varies from 85-110. I prefer cold weather. I don't have any swelling in neck for now but I feel mild pain while swallowing on the right side of neck since 2 days.

The problem with Inderal is that it doesn’t stay in the body beyond 12 hours. So if you don’t take it every 12 hours it rather worsen palpitations. What happens is that it slow down your heart rate which lasts for 12 hours. If you don’t take inderal every 12 hours your heart starts racing again. Acceleration and deceleration of the heart is more disturbing for the patient. Would suggest ECG and thyroid function tests. Inderal can be substituted with some longer acting drug more selectively acting on the heart than provoking asthma.

Alright I'll surely go for that. And I've not been having inderal since 6 months now and this problem arose few days back and happens at night only.
