Advice/Talk me down please
Hi everyone,
Im a 19 year old male, 140 pounds. Ive been having PVCs for about 2 and a half years now. it started off as bigeminy with exercise, but I thankfully havent had bigeminy in around a year.
Anyways, like many others in this thread, I just have a mental battle with these things that never goes away. I can be having a great day and one will completely ruin my mood. I know people often say “just dont worry about it they’re harmless,” but if you have gone through what many of us have, you would know its just not that easy.
Ive done a normal stress echo 15 months ago, probably around 4 ekgs with the last being around a month ago, and a 30 day holter monitor that showed a 1% burden with 531 pvcs per day.
I haven’t had one in three weeks. It has been amazing and I have felt great about them. Then, suddenly, three days ago began my flareup. My main triggers these past few days are bending over (causes it like 50% of the time i do any hinge movement), stress of course, but they also have just been happening so often. Probably not more than a 1% burden, but im feeling so many (maybe 20-30 a day) and its making me really nervous
And don’t get me wrong, I know there are people out that that would love to switch burden % with me. It shouldn’t be seen as a competition but rather something that majority of us struggle with in this thread, despite burden
And yes, I was taking magnesium glycinate 300mg a day, but recently switched to magnesium citrate 300mg a day around 2 weeks ago because its much more common and cheaper in my local grocery stores.
Ive also noticed my resting heart rate when sleeping go from about 50 to 60, which isnt a huge jump, but when im awake I find it difficult to get my HR below 80 which is not normal for me.
Please if you have any questions reach out in this thread. I will get back to you ASAP.
