Just thinking about your prone position as my palpitations only happen when I am prone -- nightime sleeping position. I am going in for a an apnea test which is breathing centered. I wonder if your palpitations are related to breathing due to work being done on you in a prone position and your normal breathing pattern is affected.

Could be but I never have trouble breathing normally - but maybe not enough oxygen going to my brain and heart being in that flat position. It’s always a mystery why and when the palpitations start up - I do know stress will cause them but I haven’t been stressed lately. I’ve been taking Jamieson Stress Ease pills - one with dinner and that has helped a lot. Thanks for your input.

Good point. I didn’t feel I had a problem with breathing at the time but with my mouth open for a while maybe so. I’m going to ask for my chair to be raised up more the next time. I do have my head propped up while sleeping in bed. Thanks for your comment.
