Just now I was sat gaming and got ehat felt like 6 pvcs back to back that only stopped when I leaned forward and took a deep breath. Can someone please tell me what that was and if it was dangerous?

Hey Here,

I am a 33 year old female and I have been batling with very weird symptoms which sent me to a ER trip, cardiologist and neurologist visits. It all started when I wa travelling frequently for work over some time I started having very high heart rate and used to remain consistently in 130s this was no good even when resting as it was almost like I could heart my heart beating in my ear and this becomes worse when I am lying on left side. I then decided to take some sick leave as my condition was resulting in severe bran fog as well. On the first day of my sick leave I was sitting and I felt like something was dumped in my system and I became very dizzy, weak, tachcycardiac and my blood presssure fell. I got advised bed rest for 2 weeks during which I was monitoring my symptoms and even standing was giving me HR of 140s and it was getting worse on hot days. I was also refered to cardiologist and neurologist for my near fainting experiemce. My cardiologist suspected pots but she also suspects diastolic dysfunction and needs holter monitoring. My neuro cleared me, but sometimes even while sitting I get very high heart rate and a very low pusle pressre and I feel like I am fainting and my heart feels like it flutters. Also on most days I wake up parched and need a lot of water the ER visit also diagnosed me with mild hypokalemia and mild alkanosis as I get very bretahless also during these episodes. I am still struggling with no answers and no diagnosis and very wide range of weird symptoms.

Also of this comes with bone deep fatigue and exertion although I have a few good days most days are just bad and feels like even my bones are tired.

Kindly engage with this post I highly appreciate your support

Hi guys,

I'm a 26-year-old male, and I've been dealing with ectopics and palpitations for 4 years now. I had SVT as a kid, which I got ablated for, but now my issue is that I get hard thumbs and palpitations every now and then, which really scares me. I've been taking anxiety medications because of it, because it really makes me think that I'm going to die. Whenever I'm far from the hospital, I trigger my anxiety.

I've had multiple Holter monitors and electrocardiograms. My heart is normal, and nothing major has been caught in the Holter monitor or the PVCs. My doctor says it's nothing to worry about, but it's easy for him to say.

I've gained weight during this time and been really unhealthy. I want to get to the gym and get leaner, but I just can't make myself to.

Are there people who have dealt with this for a long time and who have an active lifestyle? How long have you had it for, and how did you overcome the fear of it?

Hello all, I’ve been experiencing heart palpitations every single night at right around the same time. Around 3-5am every night I wake up with these palpitations that feel like a hard thump or like 2 thumps in a row. The thump occurs about every 20-30 seconds and the episode lasts like 20-30 minutes. It seems to go away faster if I’m sitting up or standing as opposed to lying down. Please help! What could these be?

I’ve been having ectopic beats for a whole month now. Some days are better than others. I would just like to know if there’s any other people out there who have the same situation as me?

They can be all throughout the day, some stronger than others.

I saw my doctor who prescribed me propranolol and gave me an examination and an ECG, which was fine.

Am I gonna be ok basically? Because sometimes my anxiety tells me I’m not…

Just wanted to hear other people stories on not having PVCs anymore(super minimal amount)

It just almost doesn’t feel real.

Can anyone tell their experience please
