When are palpitations dangerous?

[braxtoncruz]

Every time I get a palpitation I just put one of these videos on and read the comments and that usually calms me down.

[allysonfarrell]

You just put my mind to rest ! I thank the Lord everytime I watch one of your videos-- I have been blessed so much by them. Thank you doctor, and God Bless you and your family!!!

It's such a shame I don't live in the same country as you do. I would immediately visit you because you seem like someone who is professional and above all kind and calming.

You are the doctor we all wish had the time for us. Thank you so much for the direct education and comfort, not to mention the money saved and time wasted going in for another less-thorough talk with our cardiologist . ✌🏿️

I have had palpitations for about 6 months now. it goes beat, beat, pause, hard beat, back to normal. I've been to the hospital 3 times, 3 different doctors, ekgs, blood work, and x-rays. everything came back normal. I told them all about my mother passing away in 2015 from a heart problem and they said the heart issue she died from was brought on by smoking, drinking, and unhealthy eating. her father passed away at 48 from the same thing. they said i have nothing to fear but I am CONSTANTLY worrying about it. it is very scary. & when it first started it came on very sudden and very hard. now it usually happens when I am resting at night. it doesn't happen often when I am keeping myself busy. they all said it was anxiety. I've been diagnosed with severe anxiety, depression, and have bad sleeping habits. your videos have definitely brought some closure to me. thank you.

magnesium deficiency can also cause palpitations. i loaded up on mg rich foods and my palpitations have reduced dramatically.

Have been crying tonight because yet again, I can't sleep due to palpitations that come on when I try to go to sleep. I want to tell you how wonderful it is out here in the States where I now live, to be able to listen to you with all your information.The fact that you have taken the time to say all this is (excuse the pun) heartwarming! I also feel better hearing your accent because I am originally from the Uk also! I keep being given holtor monitors to see whats happening but my heart often seems to behave perfectly when I have that on, and awful when I don't! Well anyway, thanks again and hopefully next week will be a better week for me because every night this week has been awful and last night I was awake with palps most of the night! Keep up the good work. :)

I am so glad I found you! My palpitations was keeping me from even wanting to go to work/outside. These videos have put me at ease. Coming from someone who has a lot of anxiety && panic disorder.

Thank goodness for this video!! I have had palpitations (pvcs) since 2012 due to anxiety apparently. I went to the dr then and I had done an EKG, Holter monitor and an echocardiogram.. they all came back as normal. They did found out I had pvcs. I stopped eating chocolate (which btw I absolutely love) and stopped drinking caffeinated drinks and it made a difference. A few months later I got palpitations again and I have them all the time specially if I'm stressed or very anxious! Next week I have an appt with a cardiologist, Im going in for a check up!. Hopefully they will say that my palpitations are benign!!
Thanks again for this video! also your calm voice made my worries go away! love it! :D
Best regards from the USA!

4 years ago, when I found your channel I was suffering with severe cardio phobia.
Fast forward to today, you popped up on my feed and Im pleased to say I am 100% cured of any heart related anxiety and it’s all thanks to you.

Thank you from the bottom of my heart ❤️

[joseray]

I love this video! I always worry that i will die whenever i experience palpitation but watching this made me undertand palpitations. Thanks for the knowledge.

[MelissaLopz]

This is the best explanation I've heard about palpitations, this and the gastric heart connection

[allanmolina]

I put my symptoms in Google and it told me that my heart was going to explode I think I'm just going to watch the videos from dr. Sanjay from now

[ridingmygoldwing]

Dr. Gupta, you are amazing. You explain everything in plain English and make me feel normal eliminating my anxiety, my worries about my palpitation "PVC" goes away with the simple way you explain. Thank you.

[iwnunn]

I have palpitation issues and am one of those people who sees 1111 everywhere  So when I saw the video was 11:11 in duration I had to watch.

[ashleeeustace]

I've been recently experiencing heart palpitations due to anxiety and I can't begin to explain how much your videos have helped! I love my doctor and we're going through the appropriate tests, but your explanations have provided so much relief! Thank you so much for what you do! ❤

[Theycallmekenney]

This video gave me some relief!!! I have palpitations but I haven't had any of these symptons or family history of this stuff...my mother and grandmothers and grandfathers on both sides died at old age and no one in my family has ever dropped dead or had heart disease, my father doesnt have palipations at all...my grandfather had high blood pressure from eating bad food for years but he still lived till 68 and was overweight his whole life....I believe my mother passed anxiety on to me she told me she used to have anxiety really bad in the 80s with palpitations etc and she still has them every blue moon but they don't bother her anymore she's 57....thank god for this doctor and thank god I don't have any of these symptoms....I'm still a work in progress with this stuff it can freak you out.

I have had palpitations for 38 years I’m now 73 years old and had a pacemaker put in 7 weeks ago, and still going like the pink elephant with Duracell batteries, even though I have a.pacemaker put in, I still have the palpitations, there are days I have had thousands off skip heart beats, and odd feelings and the heart stop and go, I’m still here, eating working and complaining, and bugging someone, and enjoying life until it stops, I don’t worry never did never will, until my eyes close for good, why don’t I worry, it’s because my lord and saviour said why worry you can’t change one thing by worrying, so I don’t worry because it’s up to him, I will enjoy while I’m here, then I will enjoy after when I get with him, what more could you ask for, that all I want and need to know that’s what my house is built on faith in what god has promised, let me give you a little tip, if you have ears to hear listen, and he will whisper to you things you never known before, yes it will change your life forever, it did for me I’m not crazy, he said my sheep hear my voice, yes he talks to his sheep everyone off us, but do we here him, it sad because we have to much off the world in us to hear his voice, but he keeps trying, I was 69 year before I really heard and understood for the first time, don’t expect too much, he is a god off few words, but very important words, and sometimes a long time before he speaks, but he is always right there when you are in trouble, call on him he will answer, and always remember what he said, that the afflictions off the just are many, but he delivers them out off them all, so we get afflicted like every one else, but he delivers when you call on him, amen

[christineesposito]

Absolutely admire your knowledge and demeanor. You always speak to us and not at us or down to us.
Have referred your channel to two of our daughters who suffer anxiety.

[blackrider]

Dr.Gupta, first you are a great man, second you are a good doctor
