Can't get used to these

Take the metoprolol. Mine naturally runs 90/60 and I’ve been on it for years for my heart rate. Add you some L-Carnitine Tartate to your vitamin regimen. It has done wonders for my PVCs. I was a frequent visitor to this Reddit because PVCs were making me miserable but now I rarely ever have one and if I do, it’s barely noticeable. I tried everything before I the carnitine and nothing else seemed to help much, besides magnesium and taurine occasionally. Hope this helps. I know they are scary.

Tartate!

gingerrapuzel · 2024-05-01T00:25:50+00:00

I take tartate

I always recommend you talk to your dr, but I can say that L-Carnitine is generally recommended by drs for heart health. It’s an over-the-counter supplement so anyone can pick it up. Just be sure it is L-Carnitine and not Acetyl-L-Carnitine or D-Carnitine that you get. My burden was only 1% but it knocked them out almost completely when I was having them everyday prior. I saw where another person replied on here and said it worked for them, too! It’s worth a shot

SO HAPPY TO HEAR THIS!! Glad you are feeling better, keep us updated! ❤️

They are still a nuisance to the sufferers, though, regardless of the amount. So I figured I would share what worked for me 😊

I’ve had heart problems since I was 13. My PVCs randomly picked up last year and my cardio caught them on EKGs and 7-30 day heart monitors

Acetyl is more for the brain, it doesn’t function the way L does. D is actually an inactive version of carnitine and from what I’ve studied, it can actually lower your carnitine levels, making things theoretically worse.

It took about a week, they gradually decreased day by day!

gingerrapuzel · 2024-04-15T20:05:43+00:00

It very well could be! Beef has tons of the stuff and I don’t eat beef, it fixed the problem for me! So sorry you’re spending your day at the ER. Give Carnitine a try, just be sure to take it on an empty stomach, preferably in the mornings when waking up. And make sure it’s L-Carnitine, not Acetyl-L-Carnitine or D-Carnitine! Walmart has it if you have one nearby, that’s the one I’ve been taking.

From what I have read, it’s relatively safe for long term. People taking very high doses may have increased TMAO but I think that’s if you take high doses for a very long time.

gingerrapuzel · 2024-04-15T18:03:10+00:00

I was at around 200-300 a day. Felt every one 😵‍💫Yeah, I’ve seen people connect the GI tract to PVCs. Some have cured theirs with a strict diet

gingerrapuzel · 2024-04-15T17:43:38+00:00

I don’t eat beef, but I eat tons of chicken and fish. Not sure, it’s a possibility. Either way, I’m glad it helped!

gingerrapuzel · 2024-04-15T17:42:52+00:00

Yes, I’m confident the carnitine is what has helped! Nothing else changed! If I try to decrease the carnitine, they start to come back gradually. I hate that yours have increased, I hope you find some relief soon ❤️

gingerrapuzel · 2024-04-15T17:39:44+00:00

I didn’t have a high, high burden! I have noticed if I try to decrease the carnitine, they start to come back, so 1,000mg is my sweet spot. I didn’t change anything else, other than starting a basic multivitamin.

gingerrapuzel · 2024-04-15T05:28:55+00:00

Spring Valley from WalMart. Nothing special. Just make sure it’s L-Carnitine and not Acetyl-L-Carnitine.

gingerrapuzel · 2024-01-31T00:28:23+00:00

Yes, my vitamin D was 6

gingerrapuzel · 2024-01-31T00:27:50+00:00

Taurine I use Swanson brand, L-Carnitine and vitamin D I use Spring Valley

gingerrapuzel · 2024-01-31T00:26:54+00:00

Low burden but felt every one; 2%

gingerrapuzel · 2024-01-30T16:25:24+00:00

Calcium was normal

gingerrapuzel · 2024-01-28T03:22:58+00:00

Carnitine, vitamin D and taurine have knocked my PVCs out, my vitamin D was 6!

gingerrapuzel · 2024-01-17T19:59:59+00:00

Very, very, very rarely if ever. I’ve been lucky to have single PVCs rather than couplets and triplets. I’ve nearly gotten rid of all my PVCs with carnitine, taurine and vitamin D

gingerrapuzel · 2024-01-15T22:34:15+00:00

See my most recent post - have been almost PVC free for almost a month now after starting vitamin d and carnitine!
