i have been experiencing Heart Palpitations with a frequency of once every five minutes over the course of the last week. I am 42, male, in good health (last BP was 120 over 60), 6'3", 210lb. I do have history of atrial fib with approx 5 episodes between the ages of 25 and 35; lasting a day or two then clearing on its own. My cardiologist has 'cleared' me of the condition seeing as I have had nothing noteworthy since (perhaps the odd flutter). That is, until this occurence.
no pain. just the anxiety now.
I have changed jobs; but far less stressful. much happier. just finished my MBA as well before all this started.
no physical strain lately.
I drink Scotch (once daily - I have switched back to Glenlivet - so not sure if that could be the cause). I stopped on Tuesday.
I did experience A fib after drinking French wine (aged in oak casks - Rothschild) when I was 26.
there's some history.
thanks
