Ectopic heart beats

Hi, i have mild, controlled epilepsy (last seizure was 10 years ago) but suffer with severe health anxiety and recently diagnosed with ectopic heart beats. These have really increased lately but doc has investigated and says they’re harmless and puts it down to anxiety. Does anyone else have these and take any medication along with epileptic medication? Thanks

my daughter has had sezuires, not as often since her meds work now. She has alot of anxiety, doc has told her she has a irreuglar heart beat sometimes. I read somewhere there is a connection between folks who have or have had sezuires and their heart condition. Most likely, learning different ways to calm oneself will help, we all could do that.
