Anxiety is a physical condition marked by intense and persistent feelings of distress, fear, angst or dread. General anxiety caused by routine day-to-day stresses usually passes quickly and is experienced by almost everyone at one time or another. However, such feelings that linger over time and are very difficult to cope with, and which lack a clear cause, may indicate...
Does anyone else go through bouts of PVCs? I have had then for about a week and they are horrible at night. I take Klonopin before I go to bed which helps me sleep, but I don't want to be dependent on it. Just wondering if its just a phase? I had a bunch of heart tests about 4 months ago and they all came out fine. I do have mild MVP.
It's just so unnerving!! I already have heart based anxiety and this is making my anxiety go off the charts!!

I had this years ago when my anxiety was the highest. The more you worry the more you are hypervigilent. It also could be hormonal. Try to lessen your worry about your heart. You body is on alert and will respond when it feels it's in danger. You had the tests and now just try and relax about it.

I also had them alot when my anxiety was at its worst. I even went to the er because of them once I was so afraid. Once I stopped being so afraid of them they eventually went away.

I am in PVC hell right now =[. I have a treadmill test Monday because I am so paranoid. Mine were really bad 6 months ago then completely went away and now are back!!!! Like everybody said its worse with high anxiety and stress which I have both. The more we focus the worse they get. I am just trying to accept them and float through it but it's tough. Hang in!!!!

JenMink, let me know how your stress test goes please. I'm having one on Thursday and I'm nervous about it. I'm about to start a post about it. But I'm wearing an even monitor right now because of my palps. Misti - here is a website about PVCs that I found helpful: http://www.anxietyguru.net/how-to-stop-heart-palpitations/

i had been having pac and pac recently and what happens i get the anxiety going big time which in turn causes more adrenaline to pour out which brings on more pacs and pvcs. It was so bad i asked the doctor to put me on a monitor and i was on a 14 day monitor and only had 1 pvc and 1 pac in 14 days. Anxiety brings the adrenaline and causes the heart to respond so I am trying to contain the anxiety. I take a xanex .25 when it happens and it does calm me

My 6mo twin DD's are EBF and just started rice cereal on the first. Everything has been going fine except this morning one of them had a diaper rash (lots of redness around her anus). I read this as one of the signs of an allergy. BUT I did just buy a different brand diaper yesterday (which they have used randomly before w/no issues). Do you think its the cereal or the diaper? Im ready to start...
