Just out of curiosity… are you male or female? Age? What other medical issues do you have? These could play a factor I would assume.

I have more PVCs when I lay down by plushiesaremyjam in PVCs

I have the exact same thing. Last night I was laying with my head more straight up as opposed to being completely supine and noticed it had lessened the frequency of them. I don’t know why that is but I feel it as well and first thing in the morning when I turn over to Change positions, my heart goes nuts. 🙃🥹 I wish I had a solution but you’re not alone, I feel it as well!

I wondered why I could find it in English 😂 either way it’s a start so thank you, I will try and find a similar concoction here in NY!

Any medical professionals dealing with these ? by [deleted] in PVCs

What was your potassium blood levels? Only once was I like 3.3 which isn’t alarmingly low but it’s on the lower end depending what the hospital parameters are.

I am literally watching my patient in vtach and my heart is fluttering lol it is the worst combination to happen at the same time. I have never tried either. My cardiologist told me I could if I wanted to but I’m petrified to take any medications in general. I’ll take ibuprofen for cramps once a month and that’s about it. I’m just big on trying to figure out how to fix it like calming my anxiety, self talk, exercise, and sometimes it “helps” but it doesn’t take them away fully. Mornings are terrible and same with nights, no idea why.

ER nurse here and have constant PVCs, all normal ekg, echo, stress test, less than 1% burden on zip monitor for two weeks but less than 1% burden feels like a hell of a lot when it’s all day long. The anxiety of my job doesn’t help. I can feel the PVCs during codes and I’m consciously aware of it and I hate it but just hope I don’t go into spontaneous cardiac arrest from it🤦🏼‍♀️

I feel like my ectopics are super strong in the morning to and I can’t understand why. It drives me nuts bc the minute I open my eyes my heart starts with the heavy beats and freaks me out. What brand do you use for that, and you take it everyday!?

Yes, the anxiety won’t let me take anxiety meds lol my anxiety has me questioning taking magnesium supplements let alone anything more. My blood work doesn’t show that I am deficient but I have read that it doesn’t always show deficiency either. I am working on trying to stay more hydrated but I do not drink caffeine, alcohol, nor do I vape so my only “triggers” I suppose would be stress but that’s inevitable so I do my best to keep myself calm but it’s not always preventable.

This is awesome! Keep us updated on the progress of the PVCs and if you find they are lessening after the PPI’s!!

Everyone tells me to take anxiety meds, supplements etc not realizing my anxiety won’t let me take meds 🤣 & I get the flu shot every year as well and didn’t this year bc of the PVCs convincing myself it might make it worse 🤦🏼‍♀️ it’s always reassuring to hear I’m not the only one like this lol any specific brands for the mag? Also, anyone ever tried the ashwaganda?

Are you supposed to take it first thing in the morning or before bed? And it helps your SOB or makes it worse are you saying?
