Hey Guys I Was Just Wondering If Anyone Experiences Irregular Heartbeat Or Heart Palpitations As A Symptom Of Fibromyalgia?

Not minor heart attack.

An ectopic heartbeat is when the heart either skips a beat or adds an extra beat. They are also called premature heartbeats.

Ectopic heartbeats are usually not a cause for concern, and they may occur for no known reason. Despite the skipped or added beat, the heart otherwise functions normally.

People may be worried if they feel their heartbeat skipping. But it is not a sign of a serious problem. Anxiety often causes ectopic beats, and they will usually go away by themselves.

See your doctor or Cardiologist. We can't always blame symptom on fibro. Good luck!

@A MyFibroTeam Member why did you think nothing of it? Was it a minor heart attack?
