Hey ! I’m currently going through a bad cold/flu and feel like my ectopic beats/pvcs are worse? Does anyone else experience worse ectopic beats/pvcs/ shortness of breath when they are sick with a cold ?

Yes I find anything which compromises health gives way for ectopics to kick in which seem to be forever lurking just under the surface ready to strike, nasty little critters that they are. Hope they settle as you begin to feel better again.
Are you taking over the counter cold medicine? Sometimes that causes them.
Yes.. I do feel that my ectopics are more frequent when I have the flu. Lots of hydration does seem to help calm them though..
I definitely get more when I have any kind of infection or hormonal changes, and of course it brings on anxiety that can make it worse still.
