Arrhythmias Support Group
Cardiac arrhythmia is a group of conditions in which the muscle contraction of the heart is irregular or is faster or slower than normal. Some arrhythmias are life-threatening medical emergencies that can cause cardiac arrest and sudden death. Others cause aggravating symptoms, such as an awareness of a different heart beat, or palpitation, which can be annoying.
LittleRooster, lol. I like you positivity!
I exercise four times a week as a Power Lifter. The only time they go away is
when I work out.
I take a diuretic for blood pressure and sometimes find my Potassium AND Magnesium test low. My Doc Has put me on a pretty good dose of both and
it has reduced the number. The only medical advise I can give you is to talk to your Doc about it. If your heart tests normal it is very unlikely one of these little horrors will do any damage except for anxiety. I finally ended up
on an anti anxiety med.
1. The PVCs are benign. Though very uncomfortable, they're not harmful.
2. The PVCs and other weird beats do not put me at higher risk for any more serious heart issues.
3. PVCs really only need to be treated if they happen in 10 to 15% of all your heart beats in a day....you have hundreds of thousands of beats in a day, so you would have to have thousands and thousands of PVCs before it would even need to be treated with something like ablation.
4. beta blockers can help with PVCs
