Hard heart beats but low to normal heart rate ?
For the past few days I have not only been experiencing PVCs but other strange symptoms like a hard beat that leaves you a very weird sensation in the chest coupled with constant belching and a vibrating feeling. Its like having a knot in the chest that at times seems to travels all the way up to the

metoprolol and anxiety
Hi all, I recently started metoprolol for tachycardia and pvcs, it helps tremendously with this but my anxiety has seem to have gotten worse. Don't think it is due to the beta blocker, think its more the anxiety over the dizziness the medication causes. Does anyone take anything with metoprolol for

PVCs - no rhyme nor reason to them
PVCs. No rhyme nor reason to them. I was having getting on for 400 per day, whether I was resting or exercising and then they suddenly disappeared for 12 months. Then they came back and got progressively worse (up to 1000 per day) during a 12 month period during which they occurred almost 100% at rest

Effects on FEV1 after use of inhaled saline
I’ve had a 5% drop in my FEV1 from 28% to 23%. I have fairly recently been using inhaled saline twice a day to help with clearance. I just had a quick “google”...(dangerous I know😱) but it appears the use of inhaled saline could have a derogatory effect on FEV1. Any thoughts? If so, any alternatives

Can lung function be improved?
Hi all. I had a full lung function test a few weeks ago. Just called for any results that they had and unfortunately my FEV1 has gone down from 28% to 23%. I have been shielding and have been exercising as regularly as possible...(in between chest infections) Just wondered if anyone has had an improvement

Has anyone had Ablation for AFib and PAC’s/PVC’s? And did it stop the PAC’s?
Hi. First time posting here. I’m 43 years old and have been living with PVC’s for the past 15 years that would come and go sporadically. I never taken medication for them because they never were that intense. This March, I started getting waves of PAC’s that stayed constant Even until now. I have

Nervous about an upcoming stress test
Hi everyone! I suffer from occasional PVCS, PACS, and have had tests done already on my heart within the last year. I have had multiple ECGS, a 48hour holter monitor, resting echocardiogram, chest x-rays, and blood tests. Everything came out good and my doctor told me that I am overweight and out of

Slight Irregular heartbeat
After av node ablation and pacemaker, I still have a slightly irregular heart beat at times. Does that mean my ventricles are still working a little on their own? It may be PVC's.

Was PACs, now PVCs
It seems that some change must have taken place for it go from occasional PAC episodes to frequent
PVC
episodes. I'll make an appointment with my EP tomorrow, but wondering if anyone has any comments about this.

Every breath I take...
Now what should the next line be? I am grateful for? Well of course. Is surprisingly inadequate? Yes, that too of course. Took a lot of effort? Yes, well naturally. I have severe COPD. The only point I am making perhaps is that when the dreaded exacerbation arrives it is always a shock. This time I

Breathlessness on effort ( but not always)
Two subjects: Pre Premature Ventricular contractions ( not a typing error my cardiologist told me I had those during my ECG today) Breathlessness going up a hill ( but not everytime). Take 3.75 Bisoprolol and Flec 200 slow release. ( My cardiologist says these don't cause that - hmmm) I'd be grateful

High heart rate since mirena iud removal

I was very well controlled on 25 mg a day of metropolol until this , hardly any pvcs any more ( which is still the case thank goodness) I have increased
