Hope it's nothing
On 8-2-21 I had the following: mitral valve repair, aortic valve repair, ligation of atrial appendage, cryo maze ablation, and they fixed a hole in heart. Things have been going well for the most part on my recovery, although about late October early November I've been noticing some skipped beats when

A bit disheartened and confused
A little over 2 years ago at age 36 I experienced the first of what I came to find out was an Afib episode (of course, not until after being told I was just having panic attacks by some very unhelpful ER personnel). This was about a week after a doctor had prescribed me rizatriptan for headaches (

Can pvcs do this?
I've been told I've got pvcs. I know how they feel in my chest and my pulse. But when I'm taking my pulse I've noticed that it's not normal at all. Like I get the gap and the big beats are my pvcs, but I'm also getting big gaps with normal beats after, big gaps with a big beat after, a few normal beats

My PVC’s are back! I used to take Escitalopram for 4 years to keep them under control.
I have found 2 studies that note that Escitalopram could be a precursor to AFib. Another item that cardiologists don’t mention. PVC’s are making my heart do double backflips at night causing anxiety. Anyone in the same situation?

Overwhelming fatigue, chills, shortness of breath, weakness - recent labs
I’m two months into injections. Had weekly shots the first month and have had shots three times a week for the past month. I feel so awful that I can barely function. I’m short of breath,weak, dizzy have chronic PVCs and have chills most of the time. These are the same symptoms I’ve had for the last

High risk from covid and pvcs.
4 months ago I started having pvcs. Some days they're occasional somedays frequent. I'm not on any meds and am waiting to hear from a cardiologist. I decided a while back that i wasn't going to have a booster jab for covid and have ignored the texts from my Dr's surgery inviting me for it. Until 5 minutes

New Fibber
I was diagnosed with A-fib in September 2021. I have been taking Diltiazam for about two months in an effort to reduce horrible feelings from PVC’s. This, prior to a-fib diagnosis. Doc now saying Diltiazam not effective for A-fib and is going to start me on Flecanide after review of tests. I fear this

(seeking some advice) PVC's, Flecainide, and possibly another ablation.
I've been lurking around here for a while. BACKSTORY-- March 2019 bigeminy, trigeminy. I was offered Flecainide but was scared to take it because of all the stuff I'd read about. I ended up with an ablation in June of 2019. No meds everything was fine until about a month after the ablation, which I

Has anybody ever heard of anything like this. ?
I have always struggled with my sleep for at least the past 20yrs. If i get 4 hrs I think Ime doing well., However over the past 4 years things have gotten worse and a bit sinister. Every night for the past 4 years or (around 1500 concecutive nights) I have had very strong heart palpitations when I

PVCs and ablation
Hi I was booked for an ablation today but after an ECG it was unable to go ahead because there were no ectopics whereas with the Holter monitor I had 22% ectopics. Has anyone else had this experience? Also the cardiologist is recommending Flecainide to try to deal with the ectopics as Bisoprolol hasn

PVC?
Looks like I finally caught my
PVC
on my Apple Watch, If you have a look on the second line you can clearly see it. I only get these after exercise

How bad does it have to be before...
Oxygen. Thing is I have severe COPD (emphysema and bronchiectasis) at stage four. Last FEV1 32%. I am 78. Now I have also had arrhythmia and some oedema so I was diagnosed with congestive heart failure as well. But two echo- cardiograms showed a healthy heart, two E CGs have showed the rhythm is now

Ectopic beats, tachycardia? Vagal nerve?
Connection between vagal nerve and tachycardia/ectopic beats? I've been having events of tachycardia since may once a week or so, usually is comes on with a presyncope experience then general muscle weakness then tachycardia and a blood pressure spike. I also shake uncontrollably and feel freezing at

PAC or PVC?
Any sort of idea what this ecg could show on the second line it looks like a half of a beat just can’t work it out what it is? Been getting these more regularly since I’ve stop my beta blockers

PVC’s and Bigeminy
So I stopped my bisopropol and my breathing issues have really subsided I feel so relieved! I was told to take it as a pill in the pocket but find whenever I’m having a bad day of bigeminy runs or single pvcs they come on even more regularly if I take a bisopropol - does anyone else experience this?

Bisoprolol - side affects.
My biggest concern is that I am still feeling every single
PVC
as a 'skipped heartbeat' so really what I am on my medication for doesn't seem to be being resolved. I have been told it can take 2-6 weeks for it all to work so do I just hold out the full 6 weeks?

Do you get weird signs or symptoms before an arrhythmia starts?
But every time it happens I get this weird sensation in my chest first then a
PVC
and then the high heart rate will start. I’m just curious if anyone else experiences something similar.

I think I have pvc’s ?!
Been on a spiral for the past month because all of a sudden I began to get these irregular heartbeats. It started off when I was running in September and ever since then I have gotten them at least 3 times everyday. I’m in avid runner 20 yes old and have been healthy all my life. I don’t know if it’
