Confused and fed up
I was not a happy person so I paid to see a private consultant and he was not a happy chappie at the way I had been treated and said it was either Inappropriate Sinus
Tachycardia
or Supra-
ventricular
. So decided to go to another localish hopsital and now I'm confused.

PVC’s while eating??
Hi all, I’m going through a bad episode of PVC’s - the started in May and having hundreds- probably thousands each day. I’ve had them before but usually they hang around for a few weeks and then go. This time has been different and one of the biggest problems I’m having is terrible episodes every time

Increase in PVC s ? After 2nd holter test.
Visited my cardiologist today to get the result of my second holter test and I am worried cos the frequency of the ectopic beats has increased substantially since my first test. The cardiologist insisted that there was nothing to worry about as they are completely benign. He also said not to read much

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

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

What happens when...
I started Synthroid (brand name) two weeks ago and since then I have now experience two episodes of NSVT (non sustained
ventricular
tachycardia
- it’s not related to SVT; that’s complexly different) this week, one Tuesday one last night, both caught and confirmed by my internal loop recorder.

Can someone help me with this.
Has anyone had an issue with NSVT ( non-sustained
ventricular
tachycardia
) while on Synthroid? I have an implantable loop recorder that records my heart beats and it recorded two episodes yesterday afternoon. I had blurry vision, intense rushing sensation and irregular fast beats.

NSVT and I’m at a loss.
So my implantable loop recorder showed I had two episodes of NSVT (non sustained
ventricular
tachycardia
- coming from the ventricles) yesterday. One was 6 beats another was 11. I was sitting playing on my phone when my vision got blurry I felt a rush and my heart went irregular.

Atenolol once or twice daily ?
My cardiologists has suggested I change my 50mg Atenolol daily dose (mornings) to 25mg twice a day. I have been taking the one dose for well over 30 years for the treatment of mild hypertension but since the onset of PVCs he says taking the same dosage twice daily could help with the ectopic beats. I

Anybody tried Alivecor heart monitor ?
I suffer from night time palpitations which I have had for over 4 years now. I have has every test under the sun including heart scans, ecg's, angiogram and calcium scoring and much more. The general opinion from my consultant is that I have benign PVC'S but 3 different halter monitors have proved inconclusive

New here - experiencing quadrigeminy, trigeminy and bigeminy
Hi, 49 year old woman here with a history of PVC's my entire adult life. They used to be very intermittent, I'd get an episode or 2 a day lasting a few minutes to an hour for a few months, then nothing for a year, etc. I was told not to worry about it and didn't. Now it's been worsening over 3 years
