Hi:

You should probably call your doctor. It's probably nothing, but you should make sure because your heart is so important!

Let us know how you're doing.

It is probably nothing.....but, just in case, call your doctor. That kind of thing can make you crazy and will make flutters worse if you stress out about it.

Please call your doctor, If you get the service he/she will call you back. I would not be scared but it could be a reaction to something.

PLease call now

I have a heart murmor and forgot about it till I was in my forties. Now, I am careful

I think your murmor is your heart thanking you for getting banded.

Are you having the correct amount of H2O

call the doctor and enjoy the awards tonight...I am looking for the dress that I will wear when I get to my healthy ideal weight

I was banded on the 14th and I have the heart flutters too. It just comes and goes. I just figured it was normal!? I will check with my doctor if it continues in a few more days.

CAVEAT: I am not a medical doctor!

I have had heart fluttering all my life. I've been tested for all sorts of heart things with nothing wrong.

Mine usually happen when I am starving and when I am really anxious. So when it happens, being anxious makes it worse. My doctor believes its an electrolyte thing so usually it's time for food and drink and Vitamins. Without fail, after a snack or meal, it's like it never happened.

You should have it checked out but try not to worry too much.

Oh. And one more thing...

When I get a stitch in my side, it's a dehydration thing. That's what the MD said and I thought she was totally wrong. So when I get it, I push down Water. You know what? It works. I guess that medical degree and students loans paid off! tongue.png

      I have my final approval from my insurance, only thing holding up things is one last x-ray needed, which I have scheduled for the fourth of next month, which is my birthday.

      Hi, I’m new here. I’m currently on the liver shrinking diet. So far so good, but I have to say I haven’t found a protein shake I like. Anyone have any suggestions please? My surgery date is September 17th.

        Fairlife Core are by far the best. They taste just as they are - chocolate milk. You can either get the 26 grams or the 42 grams (harder to find and more expensive). For straight protein look at Bulksuppliments.com ..they have really good whey proteins and offer auto ship plus they test for purity. No taste or smell...

      2. BlondePatriotInCDA

        Fairlife has strawberry, vanilla and of course chocolate. No more calories than other protein drinks. Stay away from Premiere, they're dealing with lawsuits due to not being honest about protein content.
