When I was 14, I had heart problems. My heart would beat really hard and/or really fast. They did the EKG, the ultrasound, everything but the heart monitor. My doctor said he'd seen people with this kind of problem and hooked them up to a heart monitor for a week or three months and nothing happened until they took it off. He said one patient said he had an incident in the parking lot outside his office after turning the monitor back in. I find that my trouble is almost directly linked with high mental stress after not eating and sleeping well. But they took me off caffeine and all sorts of things trying to find the problem. They never did. Hopefully your situation is resolved more positively.

i thought that myself. but the doc says it shouldnt have had any effect. what im doing isnt that drastic a change. i actually learned that Ginsing can cause the same problem. especially the energy drinks that are out now.
i also learned that one cup of coffee has the same amount of caffine as 5-6 Mountain Dews.
