Got a crazy question. Do any of you have an elevated heart rate when you move from a seated or lying down position to standing? Like your heart rate shoots up 20-30 beats just by standing? I have been having this the last several days to the point I thought I was having a heart attack. Then I realized it's when I'm standing. Lying down, I'm alright. It's bananas. I need some company and advice if any of you have this or have had it. It is so scary. God bless.

Recently I’ve been having palpitations more often. I used to get them often back in 2016/2017 and had a full cardiac work up. Stress test, echocardiogram, heart monitor. Heart was perfectly normal. Showed super ventricular tachycardia caused my anxiety. It went away and would happen every so often. I do get orthostatic hypotension and can feel when I get up or bend down. My blood pressure is on the low side usually 100/65. Just remember palpitations are mostly benign but it’s best to get it checked out regardless. I hate them, they catch me off guard and take my breath away. My pulse is usually normal as well.
I have this but also have irregular heart beat controlled by medication and a mitral valve prolapse.
ive had this for sure but not overly intense but does happen for no reason. I usally shrug it off thou thinking its nothing or anxiety.
So I'm noticing a link between my blood sugar and the palpitations. What exactly, I don't know. But I did have this crrrraaaazzzzy episode of hypoglycemia yesterday out of the blue. Thought I saw the white light! And my heart was going coocoo during it. I scarfed down snacks and juice cause I felt ravenously hungry, and with half an hour it was somewhat better. Do any of you have blood sugar problems?
I have this all the time (every single day) - it’s how I found out I had fibro. It’s still a really scary feeling because you just never know, but it’s actually the main and only symptom I have with this so far.
