possible cause of symptoms?

[saph]

Sudden furnace like heat (as in menopause, but I am past that), eratic heart thumping, increasing dizziness. Am on blood pressure meds; blood pressure test shows low scores. They are the only prescriptions I have.

Poor saph I also have symptoms like these, and my doctor has discovered that I have an under active Thyroid so am awaiting treatment. I am also on Blood presure medicine with low readings. He also found that I have cystitis with no symptoms but don't think this is the cause. Get yourself to the doctor.

Go to the Doc! We can't possibly advise or prescribe when the symptoms are to do with heart thumping etc- go today!

Erratic thumping in the region of the heart is a typical sign of thyroid trouble. Also a horrible thumping in the throat and a feeling of anxiety.I would call it palpitations. Dizziness too.Very scary.. Sweating ,thinning hair,dry skin, splitting nails, tiredness and weight gain.I am also post menopausal and it turned out to be an underactive thyroid.
Get yourself to your GP post haste where they will do tests.
Nothing to worry about if this is what you have .Easily controlled with medication . Hope you get it sorted and that you soon feel better.
