A fluttering or racing heartbeat: a general overview
General, educational information about a fluttering or racing heartbeat for Alba users.
What people commonly notice
Some people log a fluttering or racing sensation in the chest. It is a common thing to want explained, and always worth mentioning to a clinician. Everyone's experience is different, so read this as general education rather than a description of your own situation.
Why logging your own pattern helps
Keeping a simple log of a fluttering or racing heartbeat over a few weeks can help you notice your own pattern. Bring what you notice to your next appointment so your doctor has real notes to work from.
