Pvcs all day and chest discomfort
Hi I am a 50yr old female and have had svt and ectopic beats for the last almost thirty years. My ectopic beats are all day every day and are caused by changes in air for example the wind outside windows that are open and steam from a pan or kettle. I have found them worse now than they have ever been

Taking progesterone during pregnancy
I’m pregnant again and am trying to find out ways to prevent another
premature
birth
. I’ve read that taking progesterone to support the pregnancy is an option. Has anyone taken Progesterone during pregnancy? When did you start and finish? Which form of progesterone did you take and did it work??

PVCs a way to stop them, I find.
I have discovered that when they start, if I stretch my arms up for about 10 seconds above my head (as you do when waking up in the morning, a good yawn and stretch), they quickly subside to normal rythm, If they return I do the same again. You can watch on a pulseoximeter - it goes from 39 - 70

Thoughts on Dr. Malcolm Kendrick?
I am new to this site, a retired Canadian nurse with high blood pressure and frequent PVC issues. I have read all of the British GP Dr. Kendrick’s books, and am curious about what sense others may have of his opinions. I know he has been vehemently dismissed by the medical establishment as anti big

PVCs and Adderall
Does anyone have a history of PVCs and take adderall? I really want to restart my medication. My heart has been rigorously tested and everything has came back normal but I'm struggling w some anxiety about it.

Pacemaker advice
I've been offered a pacemaker after having very slow and high heartbeats and a recent holter confirmed heart pauses and PVCS borderline over 10% of daily 100.000 bpm. I know lots of you have pacemakers Can you give me advice on the pros and cons.. Thanks Janet

Melatonin can induce arrhythmia!

Thinking Back
Well before my PAF attacks were recognised, I used to feel quite ill after spraying roses (tired and lethargic). Also if the council came around the streets spraying weeds on pavements that would affect me too. I have to admit I don't spray roses anymore. Also cleaning the bath with a spray cleaner

Body position helping ectopic beats
OK, it is 4 am… My PAF (which was weekly or twice a week) seems to have morphed into lots of ectopics in the last 4 weeks. The upside is less AF (just went almost 3 weeks in NSR, not complaining 🥴) but we all know the PACs and/or PVCs can almost feel worse. Does anyone else notice that sitting up

Ventricular ectopics
So my current loop recorder has shown I get ventricular ectopics. My cardiologist doesn't seem overly concerned at the moment but when I have these I experience a sharp stabbing pain in the left side of the chest. Has anyone else had similar experiences with PVCs, should I be worried?

Pulsating Tinnitus
Hi! I’m a 70 y/o female and was diagnosed with Afib a year ago. I have had PVCs, PACs, SVEs since I was in my 20s. Bad thing is, I am aware and can feel almost every single irregular beat. And now, with pulsating tinnitus which I’ve had approximately six years, I can HEAR every single irregular beat

Pvcs
Having severe PVC’s and looking for advice. Had them the past 3 weeks now and do get breaks from them but feel they are getting worse. Kardia constantly reads sinus rhythm with PVCs. Tend to wake up with them and they are there when I go to sleep. Have tried the breathing exercise but doesn’t seem to

Is anyone currently or has tried medication for ADHD that has PVC’s normally?
Is anyone currently or has tried medication for ADHD that has PVC’s normally? Does medicine make it worse? Full disclosure, I have check ups with my cardiologists in which they state NOTHING is wrong with my heart and it’s just PVC’s. They stated it could be the T4 I take for my thyroid

NSVT or atrial flutter?
Do PVCs feel different to PACs? I'm getting short runs of ectopic beats (often 4 in a row), which I think might be NSVT. I'm used to experiencing AF, which feels light and chaotic compared to sinus rhythm, but these recent short runs feel more forceful than AF, and also feel regular - could they be ventricular

PVC Help
