PVC, very scared
Hello for the last 2 weeks I have been having episodes that I can best describe as feeling like someone just scared me to death, my heart pumps really hard and it feels like the air is being pushed from my lungs. I finally went to hospital today and they said I had a PVC and to follow up with a cardiologist

Advice re. my mum’s BP (NSTEMI last year)
Apologies in advance for the long post, but I feel like I’m losing my mind here, and the detail is relevant. We have an extensive, highly varied cardiac history, particularly on my mum’s side. She had obvious cardiac symptoms for years, even had a dodgy ecg when participating in a medical research project

Ejection Fraction - Echo or MRI Cardio
A few years ago in 2018 I had an Echocardiogram which showed I had an Ejection Fraction of 43% and left ventricular dysfunction & around the same period I had an operation to reduce an enlarged prostate & the next day was hospitalised with
Ventricular
Tachycardia
( VT) with a heartbeat of 110 bpm.

Heart problems
I’m still convinced I have a heart problem.. I went to the doctor and got a couple of test and I don’t know the names of it so I’m going to try to explain it. One test I had stickers all over me and the seconds test I had a monitor for about a week. She said my heart was normal but she thinks I have

28 years old. Random chest tightness without pain the last couple weeks.
Hey Everyone Just want to start by saying that I've only had one run in with AF back in February but my cardiologist has not officially diagnosed me with AF since he thinks this MAY have been a one and done incident due to an adverse reaction to antihistamines... but only time will tell. Back in February

Palpitations When Exercising
Hi all, I can empathise with most of the posts on here and my experience seems similar to yours in some ways, Lucy, although mines is quite unique. I’ll try to summarise but I’ll probably ramble as I’m pretty good at that 😉 So basically I’ve always been pretty fit and healthy: I’m 37, BMI 23, average

I'm only 39 and have just been diagnosed with AF.
I'm 39 and have been diagnosed as having AF. I've had it for 2.5 years, but it's only just been diagnosed- kept being told there was nothing wrong as it was hard to 'catch' on an ECG. It has got worse over the last 18 months and I was experiencing it constantly, it was very obvious on an ECG, so I went

Lexapro or Prozac - what works better for arrhythmia?
I was wondering if anyone here had an experience with either Lexapro or Prozac working for their arrhythmia? I was on Lexapro for quite a few years, but didn't have the irregular heartbeats at that time. Then I decided to stop the Lexapro as I was gaining too much weight. After 2 months from stopping

Afib or flutter?
What is the difference between Afib and flutter? I’ve been having bouts of quivering in my chest - side of rib cage really - and it’s really worrying me, particularly as I also have PVCs and a history of RVOT tachycardia. I’ve had a recurrence of tachycardia over the past month - heartbeat of around

Fears over fluttering in chest
I’ve had bouts of tachycardia and PVCs for 7 years, usually controlled by Flecainide and Verapamil. The tachycardia’s started again lately - 6 bouts over the past 6 weeks, heart rate about 100bpm, lasting 2 hours usually. Also now I have a fluttering/quivering sensation in my chest, and a different feeling

Raised heart rate and regular ectopics
I was diagnosed with RVOT in 2013 and have had PVCs for years. Over the past few weeks I’vd had regular bouts of increased heart rate - between 80s and mid 90s - for up to 2 hours at a time, (that’s high for me) with thumping ectopics. This is scary. I take Flecainide and Verapamil and can’t help thinking

Heart problems, stomach problems...normal tests.
So, about 3 months ago I was hospitalized with sepsis. I was hooked to an IV for 3 weeks with constant daily antibiotics. Ever since I've been out of the hospital, I've had a lot of strange issues with my heart...and now my stomach. As far as my heart goes, it started with bouts of rapid heartbeat or

Blood test shows high potassium
Hi everyone, I posted recently about concerns about endocarditis. I had a blood test for that on Tuesday and the surgery rang a few minutes ago to say it showed my potassium levels were high at 5.5 and could I repeat the blood test in a month’s time. The surgery’s now closed so of course no Doctors are

Endocarditis concerns
I have leaky heart valves (Mitral and Tricuspid) and am very worried at the moment about Endocarditis. I haven’t got a temperature, but have had mild, cold-like symptoms on and off for a few weeks, with the occasional night sweat and occasional shivering. None of these are permanent, and I’ve been getting

I suffer from Supra
Ventricular
Tachycardia

Heart beat irregularity, mostly extra beats when I get up, turn to the side in the morning or breath in very deeply. Anyone experience this?
HI so the last week I've been sleeping so so and getting up in the night. I've since then lowered my stress and get to bed earlier and found a way to sleep more soundly to completely decompress my body. However I noticed that on those days where I slept like crap thenight before, a few things happen
