Is my abnormal heart rhythm dangerous?

[@TheAiion]

I have had palpitations since I was a teenager. I am now almost 50. I am in the best health of my life but was convinced that I could fall over dead at any moment, for all of these years. I recently had my first cardio related panic attack. I found your videos and I am so grateful. When I am worried, I listen to you and your personality is kind, friendly and caring. Listening to your videos calms and reassures me that truly, nothing is wrong and I am okay. Thank you... so very thank you.

I agree with this 100%. I'm 41 and have had heart sensations for decades. I always worried I would suddenly have a heart attack. This guy explains things so well.

[@KeithAnderson-pe9bw]

This message you wrote clam me

[@0xArkemi]

could you explain your symptoms ?

[@TheAiion]

Periodically, for a few days to a couple weeks, my heart will skip beats. It feels like it is flip flopping and my pulse matches what I am feeling in my chest. Sometimes there are twinges of pain, sometimes no pain. Then I can go months with no palpitations. Occasionally, I will get a fast heart beat for about 10 seconds and then it goes back to normal. Recently, I was exerting myself and my chest was pounding and skipping lots of beats for a few minutes. No physical symptoms like dizziness. My resting heart rate drops below 60 sometimes. I am active. In the low 50's when I sleep. @@0xArkemi

As an example, I was at the office of my cardiologist today for an appointment where I had just completed an EKG five minutes before he came in to talk to me. When he looked at the EKG and listened to my heart he informed me that I was currently in a state of Atrial Fibrillation. I had no idea that this was going on at the moment and told him that I felt fine and didn't feel that anything was amiss. Not all heart problems cause angina (chest pain), weakness, tiredness, or shortness of breadth.

Folks, I went through the same problem once. Terrified my heart was going to burst when it beat over 200 times a minute. I went through a procedure called radio frequency ablation where they use radio frequency to destroy part of the heart tissues causing my tachycardia. It is a less than 30 mts. procedure where they insert a catheter into your heart and ablated the heart tissues causing the problem. Except for a sharp burning pain for a few seconds on impact, it was totally pain free. I was awake the whole time and watched the proceedings on the monitor. Ever since then did not have a single episode of tachycardia. It has been over 20 years now and I am absolutely fine. So Good Luck to all my fellow sufferers. Get well soon.

[@sofiapaulsdotterhenriksson6381]

Same here. I had an EKG taken and my doctor told me that I have what is called "double beats" and he told me that it isn't dangerous and it's also normal and rather common. And these extra double beats also are a sign and proof of that the heart is functioning just well and normally. The "double beats" and what seems to be "skips" of heart beats are because of IF the Sinus knot fails in giving that electrical impulse for the heart muscles to contract as it shall, there are a several other cells in the heart (ventricel) that also can give the heart electrical impulses to contract and that steps in and substitute for the Sinus Knot and will give the heart that lacking electrical impulse instead of the Sinus Knot. Then the heart will beat extra between 2 normal heart beats. And after that it will take a little longer time until the next heartbeat will occur. And that is why it seems and sounds like the heart skips a beat. And, yes it occurs more often when we experience and are under stress, anxiety etcétera. So, most people can calm down and not worry!

I 'cured' my ectopics by taking betaine HCL before every meal, after watching your video on the gut/heart connection I came to realise that what triggers my ectopics is eating, particularly fatty foods, however it is a delayed response - happening hours after I eat a meal and I found taking betaine HCL which increases stomach acid reduces them significantly in my case so thank you for making this kind of content, I was at my wits end not being able to lie down without having constant ectopic beats and having no idea why if anyone else gets ectopics on a regular basis, I suggest you try fasting for a day and seeing if you get them during your fast, or after you eat a meal

I used to have episodes of tachycardia/ abnormal heart rhythm. Initially, I was put on blood pressure tablets but when the episodes became more frequent and longer in duration I was advised a procedure called radio frequency ablation. In layman's terms it means that I had a short circuit in the electrical pathway in my heart. This was the cause of my arrhythmia. They needed to use radio frequency energy, something like we have in microwaves to destroy a part of the heart tissues causing my arrhythmia. They put a catheter from my leg into my heart and ablated the tissues. It was a simple 30 minutes procedure. I was alert throughout and watched the procedure on the screen. The only pain I felt was when they actually burnt the tissues. The pain was bad but thankfully for just a few seconds and then gone, completely. That was all. I have had not a single episode of arrhythmia ever since. My heart is absolutely fine. This was over 20 years back! Today with more research and advanced technology there is no need to fear heart problems.

I did check my heart many times in the last 5-6 years and I did a lot of tests, including blood tests, x-ray, heart echo, echo of the carotid, EKG, and Holter EKG, and I have seen maybe 7 or 8 cardiologist. Except for some extrasystole beats that are under 600 per 24 hours and mild hypertension, all is OK. Very rare (once every few weeks) I have a sudden series of faster and stronger 6-8 beats, that go away in like 2 seconds. This happens with no warning while I am resting or walking. No stress, no effort, no caffeine, no drinks, no sugar (except a banana on an empty stomach in the morning) no alcohol, no smoking, no spice, NOTHING. It just comes bum-bum-bum-bum-bum-bum-bum, and goes away. NO sweat, no dizziness, no pain....just a bit scared by the feeling of sudden those beats. All doctors say I must not be worried but...I am anxious...this is my nature... So, this video is soooo good for me. Thank you!

You are always helpful; never doubt that. Just to be able to sleep at night without worrying about the heart is more priceless than you may ever know. I have one question: over the years, I've been diagnosed with a mild case of mitral valve prolapse, but in recent years, I've been told it's relatively gone. However, I do have PVCs on a regular basis, and often after having eaten or drank water. I've learned to live with those from both my doctors and especially from your videos. But on rare occasion, I will actually feel a SQUEEZE in my chest that is quite shocking when it hits. And then, seconds later, it's gone. Is this my heart, do you think? It happens so rarely that no test could never detect it, but it's momentarily paralyzing. By the time I realize it's happened, it's over. Thank you for all you do, Doctor. You're a godsend!

Thanks Dr you really do have a great calm way of explaining things,I've been diagnosed with A-fib but I'm totally unaware & have never so much as experienced a dizzy spell,but as soon as I get into the NHS surgery I can fell my heart racing which alerts the doctor who then wants to suscribe me a handful of medication which I don't want or need causing me even greater anxiety

Thank you so much for explaining all this, it really helped. I have ectopics, mainly PAC's, about 5 a day, and very short durations of atrial runs, they last a few seconds but do scare me. I appreciate the time you take to share with us, it means so much and helps give peace of mind. God bless you.

I wish there were more doctors like you ❤ very reassuring as usual. Love your videos

[@dufus2273]

This is beautifully explained. I'm going through a period of bad ectopics, where sometimes i feel them as electrical jolts or a feeling of blood rushing downwards - but i have just had a completely nornal echo (apart from my bicuspid, which was functioning normally with no signs of stenosis, regurg, or aortic dilatation). I have caught my rythm disturbances on single lead ecg, and at worst they contain 10 ectopics per minute with a typical HR of 120 ish, with occasional big and trig episodes, but of course non of these are sustained disturbances, so I am greatly reassured by this explanation in the company of a structurally normal heart. Single lead ecgs from smart tech often show these ectopic tachy episodes as afib alerts, as they are slightly irregular, and i think this is a growing issue which makes people fearful.

This answers a lot of my worries. I had two miserable experiences with marijuanna, one from smoking it and one from taking too much of an edible where my heart rate felt like it was beating over 200 beats per minute and super fast, for around over around an hour or more both times. My heart feels a bit inflamed since, but this video makes me feel relieved that I may not have totally screwed my heart over altogether.
