I have been having palpitations again for months but nothing ever shows up on am ECG
Typically, since having this machine stuck on this morning I haven't felt any. They don't seem to have any pattern but I quite often get woken up by them.
I am on a lot of medications to make it bearable for me to move at all, each with side effects. One of them is vivid dreams. I have always had odd dreams and often woken confused by them, but now they also seem ultra realistic and I wake up not sure where I am, when it is, who is there or what is going on. It isn't unusual for me to have forgotten things like my husbands name, where we live or what time of day it is until I have come round more.
I also seem to get heart palpitations when lying in bed
Maybe it's because I am not doing or thinking of anything else so I notice them more, but my heart beats so fast at times and feels like it is trying to escape from my body.
I don't drink caffeine, have little alcohol, many days I don't have any at all, drink plenty of liquids and try my best with the risk factors for palpitations and yet they come anyway.
I also have memory foam style feel and legs. They are swollen permanently but swell more each day, gradually reducing overnight but never back to normal. Everything leaves dents in my legs and feet, I can press a dent and it stays for over two minutes. No doctors are interested in it so I guess it's OK. It doesn't seem like it should be OK but..... That's my experience pretty much with doctors.
So, tonight I will try my best to sleep despite life, despite the grief and upset that presently shadows my thoughts, with these sticky lumpy dots on and wires attached, without putting any wires out.
Wish me luck and I wish you a good night and a fun and safe weekend
