[QUOTE="janabelle, post: 155365, member: 7788"] Hi Hobs, My cardiologist told me the test I had has only become available on the NHS within the last year, and I'm very grateful it wasn't invasive. With regard to the irregular / ectopic heart beats I experience. I've had a couple of 7-day ECGs over the past few years and they have shown them to be quite frequent but with no pattern. It doesn't seem to relate to rises or falls in my BG levels which are usually stable. I can feel pretty grotty when I've got a bad day of them, and the doc has offered me beta-blockers if I want them, which I don't at the moment. I am convinced it's caused by Lantus; whether it's damage done by the drug itself or a mechanical prob caused by the lousy control I suffered on it for over 4 years, I don't know. I'd be interested to know more about what your palpitations feel like, is it in your chest, or do you get a catching sensation in your throat? Do they make you feel unwell/tired? Jus [/QUOTE]
