Today’s the day

After over a year of experiencing skipped heart beats today I find out if these are nothing to worry about or if they’re something else. After many gp visits and being told to just ignore it it’ll be fine my cardiologist was on my side and believed it was best they gave me the 24hr Holter to catch them. Today I finally find out the nature of these. It’s been a ling journey but finally someone was willing to listen and help. Wish me luck xx

All ectopic beats, all harmless and all to be ignored. I really needed them to see on a monitor what I was experiencing to cure my anxiety with it all and finally I have clarity. I can enjoy my wedding in July now 😊

You probably need a monitor on for longer than 24 hours to catch the pattern of your ectopics. I was always told to ignore mine but when I had a 7 day monitor they finally sat up and took notice !

Sadly, not an unusual experience on the NHS or private.

It can get tedious after a while...

It was a change of Cardiologist that got me a diagnosis, first one I saw just dismissed everything as anxiety which I knew wasn't right ! I don't know why they bother doing 24 hr monitors because they rarely show the problem ! Only 2 week, 7 and 5 day monitoring has worked for me.
