Need advice, PV symptoms?
Hi everyone, I’m new here but hoping I may bother you for some advice and hopefully talk me off the ledge of hypochondria? My doctor is on vacation and I feel like I may finally be putting together the puzzle of my health issues over the last few years. It all started a couple years ago with increasingly

PVC’s, PAC’s and a leaky valve
I am 26 years old and have just given birth to my second child currently 12 days postpartum. Everything went well and I came home 4 days later when all of a sudden I started getting palpitations big thump feeling in my throat that took my breath away I figured it was from lack of sleep and stress but

Bisoprolol and Flacainide
Saw the cardiologist yesterday and the wanted to start me on flacainide along with my bisoprolol. The flacainide is supposed to help with the PVCs that I get. I’m just nervous because they do a EKG 2 days after starting it because it can effect your rhythm. She said there is less then a 1% chance that

PVC and lightheaded
Hi I've been getting PVCs since Christmas 2017 I'm taking Verapamil and Tambocor at the moment heart rate is ok. Some days I'll get a little flutter feeling in the chest very quick not lasting long but I usually feel lightheaded afterwards for a while,which really makes me feel a little off and tired

PVC due to anxiety??
It's been two months since I've started feeling PVCs. It is the most frightening and uncomfortable feeling ever. Sometimes I feel like my heart is going to give out on me, or I'm going to have an heart attack. It all started in south korea, I was there for two months with two friends, and they started

PVCs while laying down..
Well it’s time for bed.. I actually dread this time of day because when I lay on my back, or my right side, my PVCs start acting up. It’s so annoying!! Anyone else?

Bad mornings
As soon as I stood up out of bed this morning my heart rate shot up to 162... this is not unusual for me! Most mornings for the past year my heart rate has been doing this. I’m at my wits end with it! Everyone tells me I’m fine. I’m on 2.5 bisoprolol twice a day. All day long my heart rate is normal,

Propafenone triggering Atrial flutter and SVT
Propafenone reduced the
PVC
load significantly, but unfortunately last night I had three episodes spaced by 2 hours, what seemed to be atrial flutter or other SVT (with PVC's too).

I am the long time

Bronchitis and drop in fev1
I am very concerned. I just got back from my asthma doctor, I have asthma and COPD. I had an acute attack of bronchitis with a very dry hacking cough. It Loosened up a bit today. The doctor insisted on giving me a lung function test. I didn’t really want to take it because I was so congested. He does

PVC and bigeminies post-ablation - healing time?
Now during 10th week - same - does it mean ablation fail or there is a chance the heart is still healing, especially as
PVC
did vanish for a few weeks? So the key question - what is the time for healing and whether
PVC
can ramp up towards the end of healing?

Can ablation make arrhythmia worse? Being wise in selecting the options.
One of the reasons was perhaps that my
PVC
subsided before the ablation and EP had to trigger them with lots of drugs - but may be triggered a different one. So - DO NOT go to the ablation if you have low
PVC
load or they strongly reduced - do not be shy to call it off!
