Hi! For some time I have chronic heart palpations. So, I had some tests, and doctor told me that my heart is in good condition. He told me that I probably have anxiety disorder, and I need to see psychiatrist. Please tell me is there some relation between chronic palpitations and anxiety. Does anyone have chronic palpitations with anxiety? What is anxiety disorder?

Hi! Anxiety disorder is a condition characterized by extreme, chronic anxiety which disturbs mood, thought, behavior and physiological activity. The anxiety generally grows progressively worse without treatment. Chronic palpations can be caused by anxiety, especially by panic attacks. I also had big problem with palpations. When doctor determined the cause of palpations everything was much easier. I started to use medication for anxiety, and my heart palpations stopped. My advice is to see a psychiatrist.
