Need follow up with your doctor
Detailed Answer:
Hi friend,
Welcome to Health Care Magic
Many cases of palpitation are benign, especially when associated with normal ECHO and may not require treatment… If you also have symptoms like blurred vision, dizziness, loss of consciousness, shortness of breath, chest pain along with this, you need urgent work up
The first line medicine is generally beta blockers and you are already receiving… It will benefit both anxiety and missed beats. Anxiety causes missed beats; missed beats causes anxiety – a vicious cycle… Stepping your medicine may help - ask your doctor.
Try relaxation techniques like yoga, meditation, and biofeedback and so on…
If they are not effective and if the problem is severe, you may have to repeat the investigations. At times Electrophysiological Studies (EPS) may be necessary. Several other classes of drugs are available – acting by different mechanisms - the specialist will decide tailored to your needs. There are other advanced treatment modalities - like RF ablation, which could be done during EPS.
Discuss / Follow up with your doctor
Take care
Wishing all well
God bless
Good luck
