You’re one of the lucky ones. They usually treat you for anxiety disorder.

Fluttering. Pretty harmless. Increase magnesium, lay off caffeine and get your hormones checked. Hormone fluctuations can cause it

I just had my ferritin checked, per *my* request (doctor never brought it up but I insisted). My ferritin was 12 and hemoglobin was low. They didn't care. My doctor just said take an iron supplement have a nice day.

Before you mention ferritin, I know it was ferritin. You have exactly the same. I had only that your number is a little bit worse, mine was at 14 and I felt like I was dying of a heart attack, anxiety and depression for about six years, it just got worse with heavier and heavier and heavier periods. I finally got that under control, but I got five iron infusions I don’t think one is going to solve your problem, also you need to stop all caffeine. A lot of women are lately drinking a lot of Matcha products and they’re high in caffeine, and yes, they don’t check ferritin like they should specially on women. You will get better, but you need to control your heavy bleeding. I don’t know if this would work for you because your case is different but I got a progesterone IUD that helped stop bleeding. Don’t be scared to get your iron inefficient is the best thing you can get, there’s a lot of women in your situation and no one suggests or prescribes the Aaron infusions so they have to take it orally, which is really hard on your stomach in my case. I already have esophagus and acid reflux so I cannot take iron by mouth, join a Facebook group that it’s called something like low iron, anemia or something ferritin and they explain everything very well and there’s millions of women with the same situation, but they have not been prescribed the infusions which are life-saving. But don’t forget about the café, you need to stop all caffeine because it interferes with the absorption of iron, also if you’re going to increase iron by food, make sure it’s animal based it’s easier to absorb and add vitamin C. I’m dictating all these without my glasses so sorry parts don’t make sense or I have type of, good luck and keep us posted.

Glad you mentioned the acid reflux preventing absorption. I’ll keep that in mind

The palpitations are VERY much symptoms of peri menopause especially the kind you describe. Mine started at 44. I take a beta blocker and it has gotten better but still have them. Get that iron and hopefully that helps.

Iron deficiency can cause heart palpitations. I get them when I’m anemic.

I haven’t seen someone else with a ferritin of 3! I also found out because of palpitations which caused horrible anxiety. Also from bleeding heavily during my cycle. Have had 4 infusions, been taking anxiety meds, and am about to just get an iud to stop bleeding. So you’re not alone but I’m sorry this was a stressful process!!

This happened to me a year and a half ago. 3 cardiologists, multiple tests and they all dismissed me. I’ve been having mini episodes since and I still don’t have any answers. Going talk to my GYN about the ferritin tests

Mine was at an 8! 😳 Three months later, I woke up at 4 a.m. with heart palpitations that lasted two days. I finally said screw this and scheduled an iron infusion that day! I’m now on my second infusion, and it’s been an absolute game changer!! 🙌 I also have heavy periods, which I’m sure haven’t helped. I’ve since had my 11- and 14-year-old daughters tested, and both have ferritin levels of 22! 😱
