Thanks Scott,
Wow very well articulated. Your explanation rings true for me as my heart rate/BP did fluctuate more often but not outside of the normal long-term fluctuations I've had. If you don't mind I'd like to ask you a few questions?
1) You mentioned;
"mild palpitations are actually a symptom of depression, and that they can temporarily get worse as an antidepressant begins to work or if the dosage is to low".On that low dose I felt like my mood was very positive. Are you saying chemical depression can be worse internally even if you are feeling upbeat externally? When you've had palpitaions as a symptom of depression were you on a TCA and did you feel like you were'nt depressed? either way it would help me a lot if you could you explain the science behind this?
2)The palpitations you describe, did you feel them under your heart, in your neck and resonating to your ears when you layed down?
3) Did you feel any dull mild chest/lung pain?
Thanks again for the explanation. I feel encouraged.
