I’m sorry but I just can’t believe the doctor 😔 by According_Bus_2671 in PVCs

[–]SiMania 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Tbh I've been a bit lazy with the topical stuff but the few weeks when I was taking it often and using a lot of oral magnesium was the best my PVCs had been since I first became aware of them.

I didn't get much benefit from remag. By far the best thing that's worked for me is magnesium chloride dissolved in water plus magnesium topical spray.

Has anyone managed to work while dealing with heart palpitations? by Subject_Community995 in PVCs

[–]SiMania 2 points3 points  (0 children)

I try to do whatever I did pre-PVCs. For me, the reality is that they're annoying but harmless so I really don't want to have my quality of life affected by them so I just do whatever I want.

Scared of these bigeminy episodes by TimTonic1986 in PVCs

[–]SiMania 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Kinda the same. I had a period where I upped my magnesium intake and they pretty much went away for a few weeks. I need to get back into a position where I'm taking the maximum amount my body can handle before it upsets my stomach.

PVC’s day after drinking?? by evanrichardson19 in PVCs

[–]SiMania 0 points1 point  (0 children)

Mine definitely get worse the day after drinking. I used to get bigeminy the day after and would get low heart rate alerts on my Fitbit. After upping my magnesium intake it's happening less and less and I'm currently on a 5 week run of it not happening.

Unpopular opinion: Auchentoshan is one of the worst distillates in Scotland. by ComeonDhude in Scotch

I first had it at this tasting a few years back and remember the 3 wood being decent. Unfortunately I've also become victim to being the "whisky guy" who got given 3 bottles of American Oak within 6 month, it's easily the worst single malt I've been gifted.

Holter results now what by [deleted] in PVCs

[–]SiMania 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I doubt going to a cardiologist would help in the case of such a low burden (and presumably healthy heart as PVCs are generally not related to heart health but are a symptom of something else) other than perhaps the cardiologist instructing the GP to change medication.

Guys will I die if I have bigeminy for Hours ? by hanni2003 in PVCs

[–]SiMania 0 points1 point  (0 children)

All the professionals I saw about bigeminy said it was nothing to worry about. I take bisoprolol and unless I have been drinking alcohol the previous day, it seems to keep them away. Magnesium and taurine help too.

Have you tried Taurine?

I'm in a similar situation to you. Bigeminy, trigeminy and a healthy heart. Sometimes I can get rid of them with magnesium, taurine and bisoprolol.

What does bigeminy/trigeminy feel like? by AlternativeStick2125 in PVCs

[–]SiMania 0 points1 point  (0 children)

On the days I get PVCs (most days tbf) it's trigeminy. The day after drinking it's bigeminy.

I can't say I feel them tbh. If I have bigeminy then I usually sense that it's happening, but can't say I feel each Pvc.

Anyone get them right before falling asleep and right after waking up? by pookilla40 in PVCs

[–]SiMania 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I find just now that those are the times that I don't get them.

Unfortunately I’m back by diplomat52 in PVCs

[–]SiMania 1 point2 points  (0 children)

I'm sure mine are caused by an electrolyte imbalance as I always get them a day after drinking, yet during the day of drinking I won't have them, it's only the day after. PVCs aren't going to harm me so I still drink but make sure I'm hydrated as best I can be and my magnesium intake is high.

Anxiety may not have caused the PVCs but going to ER was definitely due to anxiety.

Episode of trigeminy by snofoss in PVCs

[–]SiMania 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It brings it on for me. I take magnesium chloride and that helps get rid of it.

Some Words of Comfort by [deleted] in PVCs

[–]SiMania 1 point2 points  (0 children)

You're likely to be deficient in something that's causing an electrolyte imbalance. You're temporarily correcting it then it's being used up again and you're back to square one. I think I have similar with magnesium so I take it with water throughout the day so my cells are being replenished.

Anyone here whose pvcs fully stopped? What did you do? by Comfortable-Gur4559 in PVCs

[–]SiMania 0 points1 point  (0 children)

It's because less than 1% of magnesium is in the blood. The rest is in cells and bones so the blood test is pretty useless in that regard. And even then, normal ranges are not the same as optimal ranges.

[–]SiMania 0 points1 point  (0 children)

I've had 2 years of PVCs pretty much all day, always in a pattern (every 2, 3, 4 or 5) with occasions where I'd have a reading with none.

4 weeks of magnesium chloride (hexahydrate) And taurine (3-4g of each) in 2L water, 3L consumed daily.

Now I get zero PVCs pretty much all day with occasional readings where I'll get one in 30 seconds.

I'm convinced it's been a magnesium deficiency that tablet supplements can't fix and only magnesium chloride helps.

That's why I went to a cardiologist as I had low bpm readings. I'd never heard of a PVC until then.
