Hey, I have a cardiac history which when not pregnant causes no problems, however during this pregnancy it has causes palpitations on numerous occasions, have u had ure haemoglobin checked as often anaemia can cause a tachy. I'm due for another echo tomorrow as they noticed changes on my last one, so I'm hoping its only minor. I have been on beta blockers pre and during pregnancy and so far so good. Hope u get the reassurance u need, however if u feel breathless with a tachy the advise is always to get checked. Cardiac or no cardiac history, it's not worth the risk. Xx
Which beta blocker are you on? My cardiologist prescribed Toprol and I've not taken it yet. However, my OB is seeing me every two weeks due to this and wants the cardiologist to switch me to Labetalol. I am worried about taking either one to be honest! I have also been diagnosed as slightly anemic. It is at a level that is considered below normal but not low enough to treat? I will follow up with my cardiologist on Thursday and bring up the anemia again, thanks for reminding me!
