Another quick question. Ive been trying to theorize why my body suddenly decided to make my heart rate so fast. In 2006, i got my wisdom teeth removed and before i went under i was panicing xD so my heart rate was 120 but when they put the stuff that makes you go unconcious in, my heart rate went down to 79 right before i went under. Anyways a few months after that surgery i was getting a ton of pressure and pain in my jaw-right side of my head. I had to go back to get an xray and he found something with my jaw but dismissed it as arthritis in the jaw and sent me off with pain killers and said sorry. Anyways fast forward about 6 months after that, i had a 24 hr bug that made me throw up only when i stood up. Odd isnt it? So i avoided standing up and took a gravol. After that i felt realy sick to my stomach for a good 4 months afterwards and noticed i was getting more panic attacks out of no where. So my last year of high school was a bit of a mess.
What im wondering is if my jaw has anything to do with pots, or that virus i had for 24 hrs. I also might fit in the category of eds but im not sure. I know im not very flexible… 7 years of ballet taught me that haha… So i dont know if i have it or not. I am quite underweight. I have been my whole life. I have a fast metabolism. So my bmi atm is only 17.2. Im almost 5’7″ and have long narrow fingers and long legs.
Also i find my atenolol is working better in the winter. The summer time i get severely dizzy and pressure in my head and i feel my heart pounding. Its not a great feeling. But now that its winter my heart rate eases a ton unless i end up running around and then ill get that pressure in my head feeling again and pounding in my chest. I was wondering dr.dianna, now that your tachycardia is gone, can you stay in the heat for a lot longer now? Id love to go to the beach and just lay in the sun. Im quite pale ffrom staying inside mostly all summer. Theres so much im looking forward to doing once my tachycardia is gone/pressure in my head is gone.
