Anyone have these symptoms?

I was not technically diagnosed with PPD but I have experienced some of the symptoms. Not to mention my LO was diagnosed with Cystic Fibrosis at 3 weeks old so that has not been easy. Last week I started having palpatations and went to the dr. They listened to my heart and everything was good even did an EKG all good. Said it was becasue I came off of my BP meds cold turkey without weaning myself. The palpatations are gone but it seems like whenever I do a lot of errands or housework I tire more easily and have to stop to catch my breath, Anyone else? I am thinking that it may just be that I just now really started getting back into my regular routine after basically just sitting and holding and nursing LO for the first 6 weeks.

not being familiar with your BP meds, I cannot comfortably make a suggestion. To many factors... increased activity change in meds, still recovering.

Usually heart rate changes are not PPD but related to anxiety if not from a medical reason.  This is because anxiety attacks cause adrylin (sp?) and endorphin rushes. Thats all I can add.
