Lots and lots of PACs
Hello 👋 Wonder if anyone can offer any advice? For a few years I've been experiencing ectopic beats (been told they are PACs). I get them on a daily basis and they have been attributed to hormones. I'm perimenopausal. I'm on Propranolol for them (and anxiety). Last June (2023) I experienced

My uncertain heart
After an hour of sitting and reading the paper online this morning, I noticed sensations in my chest similar to those that have previously indicated AF. My Wellue told me I was in sinus but the rhythm was irregular and there were PACs and PVCs. I have often noticed that PACs and PVCs in the mornings

Ectopic sufferers?
Hi all. Can I ask Amy fellow ectopic sufferers how they cope with daily prolonged ectopic episodes. I have PAF but haven’t had any episodes of that for months, however my ectopics have escalated considerably recently. I was diagnosed with PVCs and some PACs several year ago but only experienced a

Heart not behaving
I was put on a course of setraline for pain relief and anxiety. I took the pills for four weeks but started getting lots of PVC's and runs of tachycardia so l stopped them two days ago. I couldn't get to see a doctor till today who agreed that l should stop the meds. But today I've had more PVC's and

PVCs/heightened anxiety
I've been tapering daily clonazepam after essentially a nervous breakdown in August/September of last year. Now that I'm feeling better adjusted and back at work I've been tapering really slowly (doing a cut and hold). I'm down to 3/4 of a .25 mg pill. It's day 10 of that dose down from .25 and my anxiety

PVCs at yoga
So I have panic/anxiety disorder and I get PVCs. I'm an avid yogi but I don't do hot yoga anymore because I get all weird about my heart. So I haven't gone in a long time and decided to go with a work colleague. My PVCs really started acting up so I freaked out and left mid-class. It's honestly mostly

24hr Holter
Hi, Recently started back on Bisoprolol for palpitations/PVCs after 7yrs off. I'm on low dose, 1.25mg but they've really calmed down what were pretty uncomfortable symptoms (3 A&E visits in one weekend!) Anyhow, have a holter monitor booked for next week and not sure whether to stop the Bisoprolol or

anxiety over Afib
I guess I’m just looking for some info to put my mind at ease - I’ve had Af for 8 years (since age 35) and the stress and anxiety has been worse than the Af. How Likely am I to have a medical emergency from Af ? Could it give me a heart attack or Vfib ? I’ve had no Af since ablation but I’m starting

Amlodipine and heart arrhythmias
My husband takes Amlodipine for mildly raised BP and for about 2 hours after taking it his heart performs badly. Until recently, it was merely a slightly raised rate and PAC's, but in the last week his rate is 50% higher than normal, massive amounts of PAC's and PVC's and Kardia shows 'possible AF

stress test concerns
I am about to do a stress test on treadmill but worried about it because I am not that fit or young, and have a history of pvcs and atrial fib. I am concern about the pace of it since I don’t want to kick off these issues and coming off beta blockers for 48 hours is a concern! How hard to do they push

PVCs with anxiety or anxiety with PVCs.
I am sooooooo tired of living with PVCs which flare up with my anxiety or wait did I just feel my heart flip flop and now I am anxious? Echo clear, blood pressure good, don't do caffine, well hydrated. Docs said once get your anxiety under control. Don't want to be on meds for pvcs. When I am so calm

Heart Palpitations since I was 9 years old
Hi--I have been on this site before with my story . My story is 62 years long! Since I was 9 I have had heart palpitations. I have had them checked out many times. The most recent was about a year ago when I had a full work up with a cardiologist and they say my heart is extraordinarily in good shape

Atrial Trigeminy, PVCs and everything imbetween
I am now actually quite scared as for the past 24 hours I am showing I am having runs of Atrial Trigmeminy, not all the time I don't know if the anxiety is making it worse. I feel like light headed with worry but I don't know if it is the metoprolol as I upped the dose yesterday, but for the past 4

Ectopics scaring me, lasting longer than usual.
This past week, for 3 days, I had almost continuous ectopics and for the first time, they even lasted all night which really scared me. I went to the A&E, the ECG was "normal" but during the 4 hours I was there, the telemetry did pick up ectopics. The doctor said there was nothing to raise a red flag

PVCs anyone?
Hello all, I just came across this excellent research paper on PVC ablation. It is quite technical but still very readable: https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pmc/articles/PMC10624548/ Best wishes.
