Alcohol Withdrawal Symptoms/Heart Palpitation

[@Crypto-Ninjaz]

This is very scary I hate alcohol and I wanna quit som bad . I have had heart palps when I quit drinking , racing , etc . Anxiety is so bad and agitated !! I pray to GOD he helps everyone reading this that they can stop this ! I have had 10 years sober before and I want this again so bad lord help us all.

[@Roughneckjarhead]

You are a very pleasant dude. I'm 48, a combat vet and have been through hell and back. I've drank pretty heavily for the past 15 years. Sometimes I would go on a month break but I always ended back to it. This time must be it, it has to be. I'm 10 days sober and my heart is back to skipping beats worse than when I was binging. I got on metoprolol about a year ago because of these palps and they aren't helping now. I'm just curious how long this will last, I'm hoping not much longer. It's impossible to live this way. Literally every 3rd beat 24/7 is a palp. This video helped way more than all the bullshit online. Thank you sir.

[@AnAlcoholFreeLife]

Thank you for your service, you are a courageous person :) The palps were really bad for 48 hours after I stopped drinking for a bit. Went to the hospital many times because of them . When I stopped drinking for good I had them off and for about one year. Drinking was tough on my heart and to this day I still have problems once in a while.

[@dylanburgos7558]

Bro mine is every every 3 beats too !!!

[@Roughneckjarhead]

Just to check in, been sober for two months and I feel incredible. like Spiderman. The palps are finally gone.

[@AnAlcoholFreeLife]

@Roughneckjarhead Thanks for up date.Im glad you are doing well.Just take a day at a time .You are worthy of great life without the booze.

[@anthonywhite9912]

I got reallly bad palpitations that would come on as I was falling asleep. They were so bad I thought that I was having a heart attack. It would happen every time I was drifting off to sleep until the morning, then I would be exhausted. I noticed that I would only get this after a heavy session on the booze the day before. After I stopped drinking, it has totally disappeared and I sleep well. Just this is enough of a reason to stay sober.... there's just so many reasons to stay off the poison. I'm a year sober now and I'm not missing anything about it.. cheers guys.

Did you stop cold turkey? Or you slowly stopped? I'm getting heart palpitations, and I'm in this cycle where I feel alcohol calms me down a little. So it's hard to quit

Thank you for sharing. I got less and less palpitations since I gave up drinking. Touch wood, I haven't been getting any at all recently. Best thing I ever did was stop drinking alcohol and quit smoking too.

[@joeyarrow2341]

The best thing ever in life is to give up drinking and I know it can be so hard but one thing that terrified me was when my heart would stop hundreds of times as an alcoholic for over a decade and that still didn't make me stop I would still drink everyday... This video brings up a lot of memories and I don't know where everyone in their life is but I hope everyone is doing well and if I can give up that poison trust me anyone can

You have no need to feel ashamed at all.. at least you're honest and you admit that you have a problem with alcohol and you look at these videos and comments to help you and to inform yourself so you're already taking some great steps and trust me I gave up alcohol at the age of 36 of 40 now I drink for over a decade if someone like me can do it I'm pretty sure you can do it

I am 25 Years old and I was a heavy drinker for 5 months straight until a month ago. I would binge-drink almost any and everything I could get my hands on.Sun-up,to sun-down.I remember sitting in a chair in my home when all of a sudden my heart started to beat out of control.I was almost certain I was gonna die that night.Once my heart calmed,I immediately brushed it off and attempted to drink again.The palpitations day after day would worsen.It'd feel as if my heart would stop for two seconds and beat again.Very rapidly!This is the scariest thing I've ever been through.I had an EKG that stated I suffered a heart attack.However,I went back into the E.R for further testing and was told my heart was completely healthy and strong 😲Due to my stress levels the first EKG was false thank God now I know I never had a heart attack.The doctors reassured me by doing an x-ray and enzyme test.Everything came back unremarkable!A month later(today) I am having slight chest pains that come and go.The heavy,intense palpitations stopped but I do feel light flutters and pain in my chest.I also have leg,neck and stomach twinges.I remember 2 weeks ago when I'd drift off to sleep the palpitations would scare the life out of me.Causing me to lose sleep and stress very badly!!Now that I know my heart is healthy I know for a fact I'm experiencing withdrawal symptoms.It's been a long month but I know It will come to a happy ending soon!!I'm thankful for your video!!

[@brewcider]

it's been 5 months for me and i still have the skipped beats. when it stops it scares the crap out of me. i also can feel it in the bottom center of my throat. i'm worried one day it'll stop and not start back up again.

I've been having this same issue. I went to the doctor a few months ago. He told me my heart was fine, but I didn't tell him I drink often. I've never been a drink-every-single day kind of drinker. I will for a few days, then take a few days off. I have this tightness in my chest that isn't really pain, but it's really uncomfortable. I'm 29. I've only been drinking heavily for a couple years now. This video helped me decide it's time to quit.

[@AnAlcoholFreeLife]

It will go away once you stop drinking .But you need to doctor what is going on so they can properly help you.

Great video, this happens to me every night been to a chardiologist, got an EKG and stress test, and heart eco, everything came back good was a daily drinker for 2 years but been alcohol free for 1 month, I just hope these palpitations and shakes go away the crazy thing is I only get them when I sleep, I hope they go away soon but anyway thanks for the video it made me feel better.

I got them as I was drifting off to sleep and they were so severe that I thought that I was having a heart attack. This happened again and again until the morning. I would go to the hospital and get tested but they came back normal. Since I have stopped drinking alcohol, they have totally disappeared.. thank god 🙏. Here's some of my reasons why I don't drink alcohol anymore. 1. No more palpitations 2. No more hangovers 3. No more guilty feelings 4. Save allot of money 5. No more embarrassing things that I can't remember doing. 6.treating my body like it should be treated. 7. No more drink driving I can keep going on and on.

[@trunksissa2616]

It's because it's acid reflux that comes up your chest in your mouth, it isn't your heart and trust me i can know after suffering from it for 4 years non stop every day. Make sure you put something under your bed like bricks but only the side your head is and not the side where your legs are only from upwards. And make sure you stopped drinking alcohol and eating food 3 hours before going to sleep. Thank me later😉

[@brewcider]

i was drinking heavily the past couple years till the day after christmas. the day after that my left arm started tingling when i was shaking a bottle of mustard, then my heart started pounding when going to sleep. i was scared thinking i was going to die. I barely got any sleep. the next day i drank a bunch of tea at work to stay awake. then at dinner i started feeling horrible and had chest pain. my fingers were tingling. I went to the ER and they found nothing wrong with my heart and said it was alcohol withdraw and gave me Ativan. I felt good for a week while taking Ativan. The day after my ativan ran out my heart raced out of control up to 150bpm for a few minutes and I called 911, once the paramedics came it went back to normal (guess I felt safe they were there?). I went back to the ER and they said it was a panic attack and anxiety. Without the Ativan I felt like crap and doing anything made me tired, I was sleeping 12 hours every night, I was light headed and dizzy... My doctor gave me blood pressure meds and anxiety meds and told me to lose weight, exercise, and eat healthy. I was scared just walking up and down the street would cause a heart attack but he told me don't worry about it and it's the best thing I could do. Fast forward 5 months later. I lost 30 pounds and have been running and hiking. I haven't touched alcohol. Most the issues have cleared up but it seems like it's taking forever. I still have chest pains and get palpitations where my heart skips a beat. I've had a week long EKG and an electrocardiogram and a bunch of blood tests, but they don't see anything. Doctor says if I can run 3 miles straight without stopping then my heart is fine, which I've been doing. I'm wondering if I caught Covid over the holidays and it was asystematic but I have Long Covid which is causing these long term issues. Long Covid sympoms are • Shortness of breath • Exertional intolerance (had this) • Chest pain (still have this) • Heart palpitations (pounding is gone, but still have missed beats) • Sensations of light-headedness and dizziness (had both of these) • Insomnia (had this) • Brain fog • Constipation • Diarrhea • Numbness or tingling in the extremities (nearly gone now) • Longer lasting issues with smell and taste I've had about 1/2 of the symptoms listed. Wish I knew what is wrong with me. Not sure if it's the alcohol, covid, a combo, or something else. If it's Long Covid the myocarditis should go away with time and doesn't cause heart attacks. If it's alcohol related hopefully that fades away too. With all the money I spent at the ER, doctor visits, and tests, I'm never drinking again. I have no craving. The money saved that would normally go to booze is going to pay off my medical bills.

[@AnAlcoholFreeLife]

In the last year of my drinking, I was rushed to the hospital my times thinking I was going to have a heart attack. After I stopped the booze the heart palpitations continued for about another 2 years off and on. To this, I have a racing heart and palpitations and it scares the hell out of me. The doctor keeps telling me Im ok and I do feel ok most days . But once in a while, it comes and goes.I believe that is just the way it is. I am sixty years old and haven't drank in 29 .

Thank God I found your channel for my answers. I'm from India, and during my first steroid cycle, I drank alcohol. My heart rate went up to 150, and I started sweating. At the hospital, the doctor said my heart was fine. I thought the steroids were to blame and stopped using them, but the issue recurred even after a couple of beers. Now, alcohol makes my heart race, and while my friends make fun of me, I avoid drinking.

I`m a weekend binger. I don`t drink during the week, but when the weekend comes around, I can`t wait to have my favorite beer. I drink 9 beers on Friday evenings, and 9 on Saturday evenings. When I wake up during the early morning hours the day after, it feels like my heart is off to the horse races. It`s a scary feeling to say the least.

I went to emergency a the local hospital and received some medical attention for peoblem. All those pent up feel I had form the past drove me crazy. Just try and take it one day at a time . You need to reach out and get some support.

After quitting alcohol can heart come in a good state forever? Please sir comment

[@Fakestockguru]

Yes

[@thisresinates5655]

I was getting heart palpitations. And I’m only 34.. not sure if that matters. I’m so greatful I’ve decided to quit. I’m concerned about the loneliness or boredom that’ll come from it and how to handle it. .. but I need to quit. My problem is just too big with it.

[@AnAlcoholFreeLife]

Can you get to an AA meeting

[@JasonGlausWx]

What about Premature Ventricular Contractions? I seem to get a lot of these a day after drinking. I'm definitely an alcoholic and I know I need to stop.

[@AnAlcoholFreeLife]

What is that ??

[@eliyazzie4486]

What about regurgitation. Seems like it's hard for me to keep water down

[@AnAlcoholFreeLife]

Im just an alcoholic. If you are having health problems go and see a doctor .

Ive been put on propranolol because of drinking holiday heart syndrome sucks but the medication definitely helps

[@AnAlcoholFreeLife]

Can you get to an AA meeting .That may help you ?

[@Romanov3579]

@AnAlcoholFreeLife sometimes I need to drink because of the the aftereffects which is a craving followed by heart palpitations I think I need a benzo medication to help it I know beata blockers help but that little kick to help

[@M.Davies-t8j]

IDK if I was lucky, but it’s been over 9 months and I don’t crave a drop of alcohol, the key difference was that I didn’t suffer withdrawal after go’ogling and reading Steffon Barkload’s stuff, not even within the first 30 days after I quit and told no one, did not need AA meetings or meds either.

[@UnknownPlayStation]

I was drinking from when I was 14 years old I here and then quit some time but my drinking got worse when I turn 17 years old and when I turn 18 I decided to quit drinking and one day I just got this really bad heart beating I thought I was getting heart attack my family call 911 I go to hospital and doctor say to me I having panic attack I will be okay and they send me home and when I come home my heartbeat is still go fast and I really feel nausea and I was not really eating and my weight starting going down and doctor are not sure what's wrong with me because I don't tell them I was drinking alcohol and finally I realize alcohol is making this problem and I tell the doctor he take me 1 month to recover after 3 month again my friend encouraged me to drink and now I having same problem now I'm done I'm not drinking no more guys look out your friend hang out with good friend not alcoholic friend that's mine suggestion too who wants to quit alcohol

I would have two half glasses of red wine ( about 11 ounces) in the evenings for about twenty years. I guess it finally caught up to me because I have A-Fib now.. I`m hoping I can get better after quitting the booze,but doctors are telling me it`s not likely.

[@Queenlisanyc]

Wow it’s not reversible! I really feel alcohol should be banned! I have palpitations 3 glassss of wine every other night for 8 years and since I stopped this happened .. they said I don’t have a fib! I’ve done every test under the sun! I will never drink again ever

[@guygranger7894]

@@Queenlisanyc Well, I was diagnosed wrong. My EKG said my heart was jumping between 91 and 114 back and forth and my bp was up. But I had just come in out of traffic and in an emergency room because my clinic`s EKG was down. I had nurses running all around me like I was about to die. That`s why my BP was up and heart going over 100. I told them that when I get home both will be back to nearly normal.and they were,, so I refused statins and started with electrolytes and natokinase with cayenne pepper and garlic supplements. My BP is 126 over 90 and steady hear trate of between 55 and 75 .I`ve also been walking 2 miles a day for 7months.

[@AnAlcoholFreeLife]

It seems you are doing better now .

[@jimmyjawn4241]

The very same thing has been happening to me. It started last month that my chest pains would happen the day after drinking heavily. So then I thought I just needed to keep drinking. Went to the hospital two different times EKGs were fine everything finally I got a stress test and that came back unremarkable. I was able to go week without drinking before I decided to drink again. Then I just started like moderately drinking everyday thinking that was the solution. Now I haven't drank in 3 days in my chest seems to be feeling worse everyday. I had an appointment with my cardiologists today and now you're thinking I'm going to have to have an angiogram just to make sure I don't have any blockages. I haven't been to work 3 days I'm thinking about calling in tomorrow again and just don't know what to do

[@vellyjatt1832]

I feel like I'm gonna die, I'm at the doctors now. I had given up and was 510 days strong or 1 year and 4 months. Then I drank again for no reason. Perhaps cause I stopped taking my depression tablets. I got these slighty sharp pains and yes heart palpitations.

[@AnAlcoholFreeLife]

Hi Velly I hope you are feeling a little better today .Getting sober can be very difficult in the first couple of years .I know it was for me, but its not impossible !! Going to the doctor to look after your health is a good thing to do. I'm sure they will find out what's is going on with you . I too went back out after 14 months and was feeling very bad at the time for relapsing .We need to find support to help on our road to recovery .I was doing it all by myself for the 2 or 3 years until I ask help .Do you have anyone helping you in your recovery ,someone to talk to etc. ??

I had to do something about my drinking it was slowly killing me. I have been sober for many years now and life is not so bad. getting off the booze is not easy and it took a couple years to hang of it.
