PVCs AND PAIN

[Idahohorse]

Had an ablation in 2017 that held for two years. Then Afib with off/on reoccurrences. In January 2021 PVCs occurred with throbbing pain. Everywhere I look, nobody has ever heard of PVCs and pain that goes with it. My cardio PA tells me there is nothing one can do to cure PVCs other than another ablation. My question: Am I alone with the pain? Does anybody out there experience this discomfort?

I have PVC but with no pain just pure anxiety in having them how many do you have a day?

Don’t really know. As long as I a kept physically busy I don’t notice them unlike I feel pain

Since there are not many answers, I will be free to say something, though I never had such a combination: PVCs + pain. I was reading this forum for a long time and yes, there have been people with PVCs and chest pain, and not only few of them. I believe that you are in otherwise perfect health, but you are almost 80 and should reduce physical load you are exposed to during the day. I know, it is not easy to live on a ranch and not to work hard, but it would be the simplest way to avoid further complications of your health...

Thank you. Good to know I am not alone and not having unknown cardio complications. As far as hard work, “working” on that….lol. Again thank you.

I get painful PVC's and Dr Gupta says they are harmless.He says it happens when ventricle is empty and it contracts in the vacuum it will cause some pain.

Thank you . Your reply brought me a level of peace as with my number of uncomfortable palpitations I have had to fight with concerns of a heart attack
