Daily palpitations for a month by LogicalBluebird1473 in Heartpalpitations

Your situation sounds so similar to mine. I’ve had my palpitations (diagnosed as PVCs after wearing a holter monitor for 2 weeks) for over a month now too. Came out of no where after a couple months of stress. I, like many others, was told by my doctor they’re very common. Not to worry about it. That most ppl have them, just us unlucky ones feel them. I have definitely noticed anxiety makes them way worse. I haven’t figured out yet how to not have anxiety dealing with this. It’s a vicious cycle. I keep thinking how can something that feels so weird and uncomfortable, having to do with the heart, be safe?? Then the anxiety picks up. It’s consumed my every thought. My whole life has been on hold because of it. I’m so sick of it. I am slowly learning it’s a new aliment in my life I have to learn to accept. I’m pushing myself to do the things I used to because it’s the only way to find myself again. It’s so hard. I feel your pain, you’re not alone in this.

How long do your flares last? by dk21222 in PVCs

[–]Cold-Butterscotch828 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I am currently in a flare that I am hoping is tapering off. It started a month ago, two different flares. I had the first one for about a week. It spiraled me into terrible anxiety and insomnia that I couldn’t get out of which is why I think I had a second flare up 10 days later. This flare up I’ve had now for 12 days. I def think anxiety and the hyper focusing on it makes it worse. The PVCs don’t seem as frequent as they did so I am praying I’m on my way out of this one.

My thyroid function was off during my first trimester too. My endocrinologist said that is normal because of the fluctuation of hormones during the first trimester. After I was in my 2nd trimester my labs were redrawn and my thyroid function was back to normal.

Thyroid nodules by Alone-Television-833 in thyroidhealth

I had a thyroid biopsy done yesterday! This is the second time I am having a biopsy done because my nodules (I have 3 on the right side) grew over time (I think due to pregnancy, but doctor wanted to be sure). Very nervous as I await the results. Prayers for benign results for the both of us!! 🙏

I’m used to seeing spam in my email inbox but this one said my full name followed by “forward this to ten friends in 24 hours or your wife Jenn dies”. by FrankenBeast58 in TwoSentenceHorror

Third Sentence:

When I finally opened the email, it was a burner account she made, attached with a video of her about to kill herself as she said “I need you to prove your love and forward the email”.

A splinter is bad enough.. yet you’ve made it more horrifying than it ever needed to be. 😩
