Early sobriety nerve heart irregularites anyone?

I'm in my 2nd month and once in awhile I have periods of nervousness and shaky. Also chest pressure and a hard heartbeat. Anyone else? Did it eventually go away? If it continues I plan on making a Dr. appt.

Although we can't give medical advice, I wouldn't mess around with it if you feel chest pressure and a hard hart beat.

Can't go wrong by seeing the doctor. My wife is trying to quit drinking as of a couple weeks ago too. I told her the same thing last night. Her blood pressure is up and pulse is high. She's made an appointment to see the doctor tomorrow. If it had gotten really bad she would have been in the ER in an instant.

Bottom line is trust your instincts on how you are feeling.

I would see you doctor oldsoul it is probably nothing but there is no downside to getting it checked and tons of upside, not least on taking the worry off your shoulders

Congratulations on reaching your second month

I'm glad you are planning to talk to your dr if this continues.

The first few months my blood pressure was all over the place, not only high but also dangerously low!!

Don't mess around with your health, get to a Dr asap!!
