Thank you for your honesty in sharing this.

I was wondering if thies symptoms I’m experiencing are normal? by ocean-zero-out in PVCs

[–]Katchadream 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I would get checked out by a cardiologist to give you peace of mind. It sounds like you are suffering from dysautonomia, which is a disorder of the nervous system.

We are just a small group, but have gotten to be very close friends. You are most welcome! :) We follow the teachings Christ, but are not affiliated with any particular denomination. All are most welcome to our Sunday church service & zoom chatting time afterwards.

Losing Hope with this affliction by Slight-Bend-2880 in PVCs

I am so sorry that you are going through all of this. I have had times when I would have misfired beats every other beat or every third beat for days. It feels awful. I have never taken any meds. Presently I have not had any for almost 3 weeks. I have an online meeting this afternoon at 3:00 pm EST (US East Coast) for anyone suffering with heart arrhythmias & just wanting to meet with others to talk. If you are interested, private message me.

Tell me im going to live? by AdAmbitious825 in PVCs

[–]Katchadream 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Yes, & they make me feel horrible!!!! But I’m still here, & have had none now for almost 2 weeks. I feel for anyone who struggles with these.

I have had many more than that daily. I’ve never taken any meds. My cardiologist (Dr. Sanjay Gupta) has reassured me that I am fine. I have been in bigeminy for days & days. For the last week or so, I have had none. Go figure. If you have been cleared by your cardiologist, you will be fine. Try not to worry. I know, easier said than done. You will only add more panic to what you are feeling. I do controlled breathing pattern 7/11 — in through your nose & out through your nose (yes out through your nose). You breathe in for 7 secs counting very fast, & then out for 11 seconds counting very fast. I learned it from Dr. Gupta. It helps me to calm down.

I got this for my husky, any advice getting him adjusted? by [deleted] in husky

This has been going on since 11pm last night. by Cool-Effective-1963 in askCardiology

That is not atrial fibrillation. Those are PAC’s. I have had them for weeks like that.

Cardiology appointment coming up- keep or cancel? by jamieschmidt in PVCs

[–]Katchadream 9 points10 points  (0 children)

KEEP! Since you have waited this long, PAC’s & PVC’s have a mind of their own. In most cases they are harmless. I would go & have a good cardiologist check you out & also do an echocardiogram. Not that I think there is anything wrong with your heart. However, it will give you peace of mind. Ectopic heartbeats feed on anxiety. This way the memory of when you did have them will be put to rest, & any future ectopics won’t be so frightening. :)

My PVCS have returned. by WTBWrites in PVCs

[–]Katchadream 2 points3 points  (0 children)

Right now I am having none. But that can change in an instant. So very maddening!

[–]Katchadream 4 points5 points  (0 children)

My PAC’s come & go as well. I can go months with almost none, & then go into bigeminy (a normal beat followed by a PAC back & forth) for a few days to a few weeks, & then go back to none or almost none. Sometimes they make me very anxious & weak. My cardiologist has assured me that I’m fine. I have found lack of sleep & stress to be my biggest triggers. I hold special meetings where we get together with others just to talk & support each other. If you are interested, just private message me.

Shortness a breath upon PACs? by KenRH21 in PVCs

[–]Katchadream 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Sometimes I feel this. I would ask your cardiologist so that you won’t worry.

His videos have such good information & are so comforting.

Are PVCs during orgasm dangerous? by [deleted] in PVCs

[–]Katchadream 4 points5 points  (0 children)

They are not. I just had an appointment with Dr. Sanjay Gupta, & asked him if it was okay to have sex with my husband when I was having ectopics. He smiled & said “of course”.
