Hi Maria, I have never read a description of another person's symptoms that so closely matches mine. Especially the red wine and carbs causing a raise in heart rate. What in the world could that be? I have had it most of my adult life (I'm 44) and never quite understood it. My aunt has it, so I always just wrote it off as being hereditary. The reason I was poking around on the internet and found your post is because for the past couple of days I have had these bothersome heart palpitations. I have had palps before, but they were maybe once a month if that. These are happening once a day and last for anywhere from a few minutes to 20 minutes, on and off. Then they go away until the next day. They started after I had missed my cholesterol medicine for 3 days and then started it again (I got stuck out of state and ran out of my medicine). At the same time this happened, I also got my period. I have been weepy, depressed, and tired, and then these palpitations. I am going to go to the doctor, but from what I've found, it looks like it could all be from a hormone imbalance stemming from my period, but made worse by the medicine fluctuation, and a ton of stress at work the past month. My skin is also breaking out. What happened that you ended up being diagnosed with GERD? The past few weeks, I have begun waking up with pain between my shoulder blades. I checked into that, and found out that it is a symptom of GERD, which I haven't been diagnosed with yet. Maybe it's all connected to the hormone imbalance. Anyway, I just wanted to vent a little - it helps keep my stress level down as I worry about all of these things that are going on in my body.
