Synopsis

This book is aimed at those who have had the relevant tests in relation to their arrhythmia and have been diagnosed as having a benign condition. Jen Penrose has been a long term sufferer of heart palpitations. In 2010 she opened a face book group for the condition, which currently has seven thousand members with more joining every day. The book highlights that although the condition is deemed benign and harmless, much psychological distress is caused by ongoing arrhythmia. Jen calls for more research into cause and proposes that palpitations are likely to be just one symptom of a wider cause. She proposes that we want medicine to think outside of the box; to be more innovative about this condition and accept that palpitations are not harmless; they cause anguish and loss and we want recognition for this disabling condition.
