Heart Palpitations with Fibromyalgia

Fibromyalgia has high incidence of comorbidity with other forms of Dysautonomia including Postural Orthostatic Tachycardia Syndrome (POTS).

I take diltiazem and metoprolol for my tachycardia (elevated heart rates). I have inappropriate sinus tachycardia & my heart rates have went as high as 190 without meds and just waking up or resting.

I get palpitations when I forget my meds. I am on beta blockers because I get palpitations very often. I take Bisoprolol. It really helps!

I don’t get palpitations unless I am having anxiety so this wouldn’t relate to me.

I take diltaizem do or my heart rate

If your cardiologist can give you some medicine to calm things down it helps. I take Atenolol and it’s great. But a side effect I do not like is that it makes your feet and ankles swell if you increase the dosage.

I have. I have tachycardia bc of lupus and fibromyalgia. It attacks the walls of your heart if your not careful. Make sure you see a cardiologist. Very important.
