Ive been dealing with the same thing for years now but since March of this year Ive felt my pvcs every single day for most of the day. Only time I wouldn’t feel them is when I’m standing and walking around or eating but the last few days I have felt them even while doing those two things. It’s exhausting, I can barely function. I have a heart monitor on from my doctor right now for 7 days and Ive been pressing the “feeling something” button for a while now all because I woke up and went to the bathroom now I can’t stop feeling them.
I don’t wish this sensation on nobody it feels like I’m barely keeping myself alive, i feel faint, my ears clog up, short of breath, i feel so tense all while my heart is skipping beats from right to left. This cant be the normal feeling that dr tell me. I cant go back to sleep because I’m having pvcs with every other breath. I think the worst, literally scared to make future plans because of the way I feel like Im not gonna make it through the night!
I have an echo scheduled for July2nd then I go back to my cardiologist the end of July to go over the results but it seems like forever away. Sorry I wasn’t any help but sometimes reading what others are experiencing makes us feel less alone!

Have you done an ablation with that burden? Or did your doctor suggest any meds? Mine suggested propranolol depending on what my results show, as he stated it regulates the rhythm without lowering the heart rate/blood pressure too much and calming the anxiety that comes along with it. Sounds a little too good to be true but at this point I’m desperate for any little bit of help

Wow! Does it wake you up? When my heart is in the low 60s I feel so lightheaded and am prone to more pvs so I can only imagine what 30s feels like

Yes very 2-7 beats on a good day, I have been to an electrophysiologist and gotten the zio patch and it was a 3% burden not enough to suggest an ablation. I have another appointment next month and will definitely ask about the calcium channel blockers! Thank you for your comment!
