Symptoms of cardioneurosis: pain, palpitations

The clinical picture for neurosis of the heart is composed of cardiac and general symptoms. To the heart are, first of all, pain. They can have a pressing, pricking or cutting character and arise, as a rule, after nervous overloads.

Heartaches last from several hours to several days. They are not associated with physical overload or walking (which distinguishes them from pain in angina pectoris) and disappear as soon as the patient's attention is switched to pleasant topics for him or when he calms down and forgets about the moved excitement. But sometimes, especially in hysterical patients, one has to resort to the use of medications, which usually help poorly.

Patients may complain of pain similar to those with angina pectoris (given under the left scapula, a feeling of pressure and burning behind the sternum). But this is most often observed with neglected cases of neurasthenia, which actually lead to the development of angina pectoris.

In addition to heartaches, patients with a cardiac neurosis complain ofincreased heart rate. This is expressed by the fact that the patient feels every heart beat, which is normally not perceived. The patient is constantly worried, and he is forced to see a doctor.

Neurosis of the heart is usually associated with vascular neurosis, in which there is often apalliationorredness of the skin of the face, coldness of the limbs, tossing in the heat, tides to the head. In women, all these phenomena usually increase during the menopause. In men, the symptoms of vascular neurosis are less common, but they lead to impotence and hypotension.

With such a disease as heart neurosis, in addition to cardiovascular disorders, patients always haveFunctional disorders of the nervous system.They complain of fast fatigue, poor sleep, absent-mindedness, apathy, anxiety, trembling in the limbs. In such patients, tearfulness can often be observed. Often, patients with neurosis heart complain that they are difficult to breathe, constantly lacking air, and therefore they are forced from time to time to take deep breaths. Breathing in them is often superficial, the vital capacity of the lungs is significantly reduced. Such patients can not hold their breath for a long time and complain of dizziness and general weakness. Respiratory disorders are of a purely neurogenic nature and have nothing to do with shortness of breath in cardiac or pulmonary diseases.

Neurosis of the heart should always be considered as a manifestation of vegetative-vascular dystonia. Therefore, its treatment completely coincides with the treatment of vegetovascular dystonia.

Treatment of neurosis of the heart: drugs, drugs with cardioneurosis

Treatment of heart neurosis is largely determined:

  1. a correct understanding of the sickness of the patient's illness (the doctor should explain to the patient that there is no organic change in the heart, there are only autonomic nervous system disorders);
  2. general health measures - therapeutic physical culture (light sports, skiing, walking, hunting and fishing, classes in the garden);
  3. sanatorium-resort and physiotherapeutic treatment;
  4. strengthening sleep (its regularity, refusal to work at night);
  5. the appointment of neurotropic drugs (Bromine, Phenobarbital, Valerian, Trioxazine, Aminazine, etc.).

If the acute presence of a doctor and a conversation with him does not cause improvement, tranquilizers or beta-blockers are indicated. As with other neuroses with fear, many patients try to self-medicate with alcohol; but its effect is insufficient, and the danger of developing dependence on alcohol is great. Pharmacotherapy is only an auxiliary tool, especially in acute cases, as well as an initial effective remedy.

Psychotherapy with cardioneurosis and panic attacks

The decisive ispsychotherapy. The earlier it starts, the better.

Studying the causes and conflict situations immediately after the first cardio-phobic seizures can halt the development of the disease. Later, treatment is more difficult and long-term therapy is required. With these and other anxiety disorders, behavioral therapy (stimulating confrontation, cognitive therapy, self-confidence training) is especially indicated.

A distinctive feature of the avoidance of anxiety training is that it works on the desensitization model (to the appropriate conditions of everyday situations), and training of alarm management is by means of forced immersion into a phobic situation (flooding) and the formation of coping strategies.

In severe anxiety disorders, it is necessary to conduct clinical treatment using different models of psychotherapy.
