Hi Ive been having this issue with my heart lately and not sure if it could be a tachycardia arrhythmia, my heart rate resting for the past few months normally has been around 70-80. Every other day Ill have an episode where my muscles tighten up some and my veins start popping out of my arms, head etc and my heart rate can go up to 115 bpm+. Ive also been seeing random pin pricks of light in my peripheral vision and sensitivity to light. Any suggestions of what it could be?
Hi There After going through your query I understand your concern. I would like to tell you that Heart palpitations can be due to cardiac problems or systemic illness. Cardiac problems may be arrhythmia or structural problems. Palpitations may be due to AV block/Atrial fibrillation/PCs /Sets / Atrial Flutter. It's recommended to get an ECG, Electrocardiography and HOLDER monitoring for 48 hours done. If it comes Normal then you should look for systemic cause. Get Thyroid profile, serum electrolytes, CBC and renal Function test. Consult a physician with the reports. Veins are visible but are never pulsatile, this is basic difference between veins and arteries. Veins are pulsatile only when arteries are connected with vein by fistula.Don't be over conscious because of popping veins and consult a Physician/Cardiologist and get a proper evaluation done. Kind Regards
