Thanks so much Grimwald and Mcp15. I did consider thyroid as I had read about that. I don't drink caffeine, but I do like sugar (and caffeine is in chocolate). It's just weird that I have no nausea - because I get nausea a lot and seemingly from everything! I get nauseous from too much caffeine (I'm talking half a can of coke).
I had a mini brainwave earlier. The day I stopped smoking, I decided to try a new health drink (I went a bit bonkers on being healthy!). I've drunk it a lot over the two weeks. Today I noticed that there is grapefruit juice in it - but it's only listed in the french ingredient list, which is why I never spotted it before. Grapefruit is contraindicated with my anxiety medication and means it isn't metabolized properly - too high levels in the blood. I am hopeful that this may be the reason for the weird heart rate. Using the Zero nictoine e-cig yesterday certainly made no difference, so I can't see that it is being caused by too much nicotine.
