Many people imagine they have
"Palpitation of the Heart" and take
drugs to retard the heart beats.
1t is true some Cause or other may be
stimulating the hearts action.
The drug does not remove the cause,
but just slows down the heart by main
force.
The situation then is this -
Something is pushing and something
pullinG-one force acting one way, one
force another, and the heart has TO
stand the strain. 1t can't stand it in
definitely.
AS matter of fact, sO-Called Heart
PalpitatiOn" is generally caused by
pressure from gases which distend the
