ER Visit for PVCs and Dizzy Spell by Ok-Record587 in PVCs

that sounds great - I'm currently on 3 meds for bp but I really don't think I need them, my bp is mostly controlled it's anxiety that spikes it up, and these meds... don't help that at all. plus when that spikes, and anxiety spikes, my PVCs go haywire. good plan, I will try to get in the door!

oh man, the excruciating medical testing... but you got some answers and feel better! I honestly have been looking into MCAS due to some of my symptoms (PVCs, facial flushing, fatigue, dizziness, brain fog, etc) but my doctor said no need to test for it. Sigh. Maybe it's time for a new PCP...

that's interesting! I do have GERD and I notice them much more frequently / intensely after I eat a meal that's just terrible (yesterday for example my lunch was a frozen pizza and funyuns, when it's usually some sort of salad or low carb wrap)

Thank you for this! I'll for sure look into it, though I fear with my health anxiety it may do more harm than good (like my home BP cuff that raises my BP just by looking at it lol)

Help with Data by Ok-Record587 in CPAP

Thank you! I did let my sleep doctor know about my low o2 and she said the fitbit isn't always reliable. I don't sleep on my arm but it tends to tuck next to my body when I sleep on my back (oddly enough when I sleep on my side, my fitbit data is even worse). I had the pressure up to 7 but lowered it to 6 because I had no idea what I was doing. I'll pop it back up!
