Cardiologist: With these symptoms, i recommend an evaluation by a cardiologist and a check for an overactive thyroid in view of her complaint of a heart racing sensation.

See doctor to be checked . Read dr. Richard hoffman's book on mvp on amazon.Com. Increase fluid intake, try magnesium supplements.
