Super useful video. Recent Holter detected 10,000 PVCs in 24hr timeframe. This video helped me make the critical connection between my intense endurance sports regimen, cortisol release and associated magnesium deficiency. Purely from daily magnesium supplementation, I was able to reduce the PVCs by 99.6%.That's right, almost reduced to zero, within 3months. Thank you!

You NEED to drink half your weight in ounces per day...ie 120 pounds = 60 ounces of fluids and maybe drink some fluids with electrolytes like Gatoraid or the like . The good news is that I am told by my cardiologist that they will not kill us, BUT IF you are a sensitive person like me, they will certainly get your attention and cause you to be uneasy ! Hang in there and see a cardiologist who can run some tests , put a Holter monitor on you and possibly prescribe some meds which will stop them . Best of luck and don't sweat them !!!

@oliviacasey4643 Жыл бұрын
I'm like this guy. I had over 33,000 a day, structurally healthy heart, and was completely asymptomatic! I opted for a cardiac ablation and it took my burden down from 27% to 3%. This is very good advice because anxiety of the issue itself does make them worse and ruins your quality of life. But for some people it's very hard not to worry and they do their own research. I was too afraid of cardiomyopathy so I took an aggressive approach and I'm very happy I did.

@cindylutz74429 ай бұрын
I just got monitored--29% total burden, 55,000+ total but only during the daytime. I've been having them for about 16 years and at first, they really did affect my quality of life...maybe they still do, just I'm deteriorating in other ways now, too, so it's hard to tell? I do think anxiety in general makes them worse, but I don't have anxiety ABOUT them...if that makes sense. I just wore the monitor because I thought I should mention them to a new PCP I was trying out. He listened to my heart, said, "You're in bigeminy now," and I was like, "yeah, pretty sure this is my new normal heart rhythm." So he said I should probably get monitored again, that he becomes concerned at the 30% mark. I just missed it, so I guess he's not concerned (haven't heard from him. 😅) But I got a 24 page report so am trying to figure out what it says. Still don't feel anxious about it, though. My experience with doctors lately seems to be that if you're still on your feet, you're good to go. When you black out, can't walk, (whatever,) we can talk. So, I'm...on my feet, and will just continue to muddle through until I can't.

Have had multiple EKGs, holster, and soon will have a stress test, but every doctor, including cardiology assures me they're safe with my heart (The stress test will be my last need of assurance). I think you hit the nail on the head that anxiety plays a huge role in this. The more you think about them, the worst they get, and unfortunately I feel many of them when they happen. While they may be benign for most people (with healthy hearts), they truly can be debilitating.

@MonicaCadena, I have over 50,000 a day and don't feel them except when I first get into bed or lie on my left side. Otherwise, I'm totally oblivious. I have a burden of 40%, and I have an ablation coming up this summer that I hope will reduce or eliminate them. Meanwhile, while my EP does say if they continue at this pace, my (currently structurally fine) heart will begin to wear out, I'm grateful that I'm blissfully unaware of them most of the time. I also have A-Fib, PACs, SVT, sinus bradycardia, and I'm frequently in bigeminy and trigeminy at the same time, and I have HBP. I'm unaware of any of it symptomwise. Like the patient in the video, any symptoms I reported during numerous Holter monitoring episodes showed no correlation to the arrhythmia anomalies. By process of elimination, I have theorized that my SOB symptoms are related to my GERD/hiatal hernia, and my gastro doc supports that theory. I am currently exploring having a nissen fundoplication to fix that problem. Meanwhile, I've seen posts from a bazillion people who can have as few as 10 a day, and they feel every single one, and in some cases, it's even painful, not to mention anxiety-inducing. I feel so bad for them. I don't like that I have so many PVCs, but I'm so thankful they don't scream for attention! - Karen :)

@@thekeyboardzone-kas I hope your ablation goes well. I was recently diagnosed with a 5% burden and I don't feel many. However, when I'm going through an anxious period I constantly check my pulse on my neck and I must be having more than 5% because I can't get 5 normal beats in a row without a skip. I wonder if my pulse checking is creating more pvcs?
@thekeyboardzone-kas Жыл бұрын
@@robkoering2702 - Thank you for the well wishes. I appreciate it! I think it's certainly a possibility that you're pulse checking could trigger more PVCs if you're checking due to anxiety about them and constantly thinking about it. Even though I don't feel mine 99% of the time and don't obsess over them all day as a result, the few times I do feel them, I do get instantly anxious because I think we just instinctively worry that if our heart is suddenly screaming for attention, something must be wrong, and our brain just wants to automatically connect the dots to a potential heart attack. It's kind of hard NOT to do that when the news headlines frequently include discomforting reports of young, otherwise seemingly healthy young people (including and especially athletes) having heart attacks and often dying. It doesn't help that most doctors are so dismissive of all the rhythm issues and the patients' concerns and anxiety about them. It's a vicious cycle! I hope you can come to terms with your PVCs and figure out a way to be less anxious about them. Perhaps you could make a deal with yourself to only check your pulse if you're feeling them. Or if that doesn't work, maybe keep a daily journal of all your activities, food and drink intake, and how you're feeling at various times during the day, your stress levels, etc., and see if you can find any correlation between certain consumption or activities or mental states and PVCs or no PVCs. That would at least make it a productive activity if you're going to be checking them anyway, and you might learn something useful from it that you can share with your doctor. Good luck, Rob! -Karen :)

I started having pvcs about 4 years ago. I freaked out and saw 5 or 6 doctors who did all the tests and said that I have a structurally normal heart and not to worry about them. At a certain point I just accepted it and just went on with my life. Overtime, I started seeing patterns and it started to become clear that 95% of my pvc trouble is electrolyte related. I'll spare the stories of how I figured it out but this is how i manage mine: 1. PVCs after a long night of drinking - The only thing that stops them is to drink a V8. It stops my pvcs because I pissed out all of my sodium and potassium the night before and I'm drinking a lot of water to rehydrate. Gatorade doesn't work here for some reason, only V8. 2. PVCs after working hard and sweating a lot - The only thing that stops them is to drink a Gatorade. The V8 doesn't work, in my mind, because my body seems to need an isotonic solution for some reason. I dont really know why but it stops them like clockwork. 3. PVCs after eating a super salty meal like a bunch of KFC or something - The only thing that fixes this is to drink a bunch of water. I'm guessing that the high sodium is causing the PVCs so the water is diluting it. 5. PVCs after drinking a lot of coffee throughout the day - the only thing that seems to fix it here is a glass of milk. Gatorade, V8 or water makes it worse. The only thing that helps is a glass of milk. I'm guessing because it is because milk has potassium and no sodium. Sometimes it doesn't help but usually they go away after i go to sleep. 4. Lately, I've been getting a lot of PVCS that are related to medication I'm taking. Apparently the stuff I'm taking can deplete you of magnesium. I've been taking a magnesium supplement when I've been having symptoms. So anyways, whenever I start having trouble, I usually know what to do but sometimes they come about and I dont have an explanation.Yesterday, I had unexplained for 24 hours. I tried start troubleshooting, I took some magnesium but it didn't work. I drank some water, no luck. I then drank some V8 and it seemed to help a little but they were still there. So I tried some Gatorade, didn't work. I went to sleep and woke up, still there. I then tried another V8 and they finally went away after having them for w whole day straight. I don't know why I have this problem. Is my heart just sensitive to electrolytes or does my body have trouble maintaining electrolyte levels? I dunno. I just deal with it. Maybe this can help someone.

Occasionally an infection in my body like a UTI or oncoming flu. I have also found that what I drink matters in various situatons. Gatorade after overexertion. Some kind of salty drink when I’m exhausted. Milk after too much caffeine. I wonder if there’s something to this, because I had never read the OPs post before, but I’ve found very similar things in my own experiences.

I have quit smoking once again anyways but they never came back after I quit that one time 2 years ago. So if any of you guys smoke, believe the doctor when he tells you it could be causing your problems lol.

@@Deadbolthead Yes, I absolutely agree. Also it’s mostly on Afib/rapid heartbeat and not skipped beats. I see it’s been a year since my last post so an honest update is needed I think. Was the Buteyko method the holy grail? No, for me it was not as the pvc’s have returned. But… as you probably agree the heart, stomach and breathing almost always correlate when I’m heaving ‘bad days’. With this knowledge the Buteyko does help a lot to get focus on breathing more consciously and calmer. And however silly it sounds burping really works well (try to keep your relationship intact and do it privately 😂) The best solution I found to really make it stop (even if it’s just for a few hours) is to play Paddel. Now I’m not saying you should pick up this, hard to find, racket sport. But of all the sports I do it the best combo of feeling totally relaxed on court, having fun but also focusing constantly. And it’s on 60% of my max mostly. However… in the middle of the night waking up (again) by pvc’s sucks and wears you out so much.

I rather have the "no symptoms/high pvc's" than what I'm experiencing with 1 to 8 on average per hour and feeling everyone of them. Dr's was like, Yeah! We found your problem after several years! You got PVC's...we'll refer you to a cardiologist, good luck and go home! That was 4 months ago now and I have to wait for an appointment to be made. None of them seem to care that you have to go on living with these issues cause, yes, we all have issues... 🙄

I now know what causes my pvc, pac’s, svt’s, afib and other irregular rhythms; Too much coffee, not enough coffee, no coffee, not enough sleep, too much sleep, just enough sleep, too much breathing, not enough breathing and just enough breathing, driving, not driving, looking left, looking right, looking straight ahead, opening my eyes, closing my eyes, winking, picking my nose, getting up out of bed, laying down in bed, eating, not eating, eating enough, closing one eye while keeping the other one open… actually everything and nothing. 20k in one day ?

the real reason: nutritional deficiencies. potassium deficiency, magnesium deficiency, vitamin b1 deficiency, vitamin b12 deficiency, vitamin d deficiency, iron deficiency, copper/zinc imbalance also make sure you get all the essential amino acids everyday, but especially Taurine. Taurine is known to be an natural antiarrythmic and it also balances the electrolytes other causes: chronic inflammation in your system (not even in your heart) take high dose vit D (5000-10000iu/day) and vit C (1000-2000mg/day) to get rid of any inflammation

Careful with that diagnoses... I for example, take Amlodipine and technically shouldn't be taking D supplements. Even though Dr's aren't speaking of it (mine also ignoring it), nutritionists and other medical studies are stating so. The cause: Amlodipine increases levels of Vitamin D....too much isn't a good thing in this case.@@chinaprodukt777

Wellllll ... thats a relief ! Yesterday I started out my post Holter test by meeting with a Physicians Assistant. He pointed out my 17.7 % PVC burden ( guess I had over 17,000 bad beats ). He made some good comments and at the end he stated that my Cardiologist wanted to meet with me. My Cardiologist looked like he had a bad day or lack of sleep the night before. Now, my doctor looks tired and I ALWAYS feel that you only have a short amount of time to be PROCESSED and the doctor has many patients who have to be seen and reported on. So ... I took me 17,000 beats and worried on occassion and did not know if I could even do physically exerting things, like mow the lawn. I know that doctors don't like Patients to Google, but there are reasons why Patients ... see Dr Google. So, thank you, this helped.

I've had uneven rhythms at rest for as long as I can remember. All I need to do is a little light exercise - even just walking around - to bring my heart rate up slightly, and rhythm becomes normal. I am an active person who does long bike rides, and my heart has endurance adaptations from many years of that activity. Resting heart rate is 60 bpm or lower. Recently I made some audio recordings of my heart while laying down, and they show the arrhythmia. There are several different possible patterns, but the most common one is a triple ventricular pulse cluster, i.e., there are two "extra" ventricular contractions following the first one, spaced at 220 msec and 240msec. The second contraction tends to be stronger than the others. This sequence suppresses the next beat. The rate of skipped beats is one out of every 3 beats (trigeminy) at most, but can be lower, e.g. one out of every 5 or 6 beats. I do not have an ECG showing this yet. Since there are three quick ventricular contractions in a row, it may meet the criterion for Ventricular Tachycardia (VT). The condition is symptomless except that I can feel the cluster of contractions. It doesn't impact my activities because I have normal rhythm when I am active. One very interesting finding: If I listen with headphones while monitoring my heartbeat, it remains normal rhythm. I can't get a recording of the arrhythmia unless I turn the headphone volume way down, or take the headphones off. This suggests some interplay between the brain and heart. However, once the arrhythmia starts, it will persist even if I listen to it - until I get up and start moving around.

I know this video is old but here goes. 8 years ago I had an episode of afib. I had to be cardioverted to reverse the arrhythmia and this led to the discovery of a cardiomyopathy. I had an enlarged(muscular) heart as well as enlarged atria and ventricle on the left side of my heart. My EF was reduced in the 20-25% range. The cause is unknown. I was started on aggressive blood pressure management and beta blocker therapy. Years later my EF is back up to 45-50%. Heart is normal size and left atria and ventricle is normal size. Fast forward to 2 months ago. I had started smoking about a year before 2 months ago and ended up having my second episode of AFiB 2 months ago which I was cardioverted out of as well. I have quit smoking again and up until 3 days ago everything has been great BP has been perfect normal rhythm. And then all the sudden I start having long episodes of bigeminy and trigeminy which is new to me. I’ve always had some pvcs but I dealt with them. The issue here is that I feel every heart beat I have everyone one including the bad and good. My cardiologist has finally suggested an EP study and possible ablation dependent on the result from the study. My confusing is I don’t understand why all the sudden. I am only 34 and suffer from anxiety already and you add in the heart issues and it’s even worse. Nothing in my life has changed in the past two months diet is the same low sugar diet I exercise normally I have been losing weight. I’m just so frustrated with it all.

I’ve had PVC diagnosis for 8 years and have managed it fairly easily. In the last few months though, they have gone from a couple of hundred a day upto over 10000 and have twice been to A&E when a particular bad ‘attack’ has occurred. I am currently waiting the results of a 24 hr recorder. Looking at your videos has given me great hope and are inspiring. However, I have just read an article which suggests PVCs aren’t as benign as previously thought and a high amount can lead to PVC induced cardiomyopathy. Anxiety levels on the rise again!!!
@cindylutz7442 Жыл бұрын
Yes, I hear you! I've been having PVCs since I started taking thyroid medication about 15 years ago. (Maybe it's related, maybe it isn't, I just remember noticing my heart was wonky but I felt so much better, I didn't want to say anything.) They got discovered anyway. 7 years ago I had a bad bout if them, ER, all the tests, meeting with cardiologist, bottom line, "they suck but you're not going to die." (Monitor showed 13.9% of beats were missed and they did impact my energy, other things, but if they said no big deal, okay.) But I too read that enough of them for long enough can cause cardiomyopathy, and NOW they're also saying (online, that is,) that they can lead to Afib (which apparently IS a concern,) that 15,000 a day is excessive, and it does make me wonder if they know more now, and also...what does MY heart look like after dealing with them for 15 years? They've ramped up again lately too. Sure they're connected with stress and anxiety--I can feel that clear as day--but I already do everything I can to deal with stress/anxiety, and you can't avoid all of it. I guess the good news is that we have strong hearts? I don't have high blood pressure, and I have a very slow heart rate, so even if I'm doubling the work load, I still don't go over 100 bpm. And, I mean, you can kind of make that "on the edge of a panic attack" feeling work for you, right? At least, contasted with the sluggishness of an underactive thyroid, this is practically compensation. (Maybe it really IS my body's way of compensating?) Anyway, good luck to you!

Thanks Doctor - this helps. I was previously having 1 PVC every 10 seconds all day for weeks. I had an echocardiogram which showed that my heart was structurally normal. It did show I had a leaky valve but my cardiologist told me I shouldn't worry about it. He put me on a mild beta-blocker dose and PVCs went away for a little while, but then they recently came back even on the beta-blocker and now I have about 2 every minute, all day, every day... it's been over a month now. My next appointment is in a few months (because my cardio said he wasn't worried), but now I'm wondering if I need to go back. I feel like a hypochondriac because I really want to have more tests done and schedule that appointment. At this point I'm wondering if a leaky valve could cause PVCs and if I'm in immediate danger... and / or if I need to get a second opinion (and set of tests). Regardless, I appreciate your videos.

I found this video very helpful. I noticed my heart pounding and skipping every 4th or 5th beat. I have bad anxiety and of course when I started to feel these it made them worse! Went in had a EKG, my Dr told me what they were and said they were harmless but would refer me to a cardiologist just to ease my mind. I declined at first and said if they are not harmful then I'll pass. After a few days they were making me extremely more anxious and decided to make the appt with the cardiologist. I wore a monitor for 24 hours, I had 11,000 in that 24 hour period! He said that qualified me for the procedure, can't quite remember what it was called. I am in no place to add onto my medical bills even after insurance so I said no. He gave me an ultrasound and eveything looked good, my heart is strong. He put me on a beta blocker and it did help but I recently stopped taking them with my Dr's ok. I wanted to try to treat them naturally. I feel like coming off the blocker is making my symptoms a little worse and in turn makes my anxiety worse. It's a vicious cycle. This video made me feel a little better. Thanks

You sir, are brilliant! I have been watching your videos for a few weeks now and everything you explain about ectopic pvc's, palpitations and arrhythmias etc, is all very easy to understand and I'm sure it puts a lot of people at ease or to go and seek medical advice. I have been experiencing ectopic pvc's for 2 months now and they have caused quite a bit of anxiety as i'm very symptomatic and all tests (echo, holter, ecg's) have come back fairly normal. I unfortunately just feel every single one which at times feels like a massive thud in my chest (which I now understand why after an explanation from you and my cardiologist). I have been prescribed atenolol 25 mg a day to keep my heart rate down as I have a pretty over active adrenal system. They are helping but I still feel many pvc's... Which i'm working on with keeping stress levels down and exercising. I didn't realise just how common pvc's were and it really puts it into perspective when someone is having 20,000 and is completely asymptomatic. Thank you very much for your fantastic videos. It's much appreciated!

My entire life I've lived normal and healthy, traveled, got jobs, done sports, pursued goals and higher education. And all of this I've done with multiple episodes of non sustained ventricular tachycardia and many many pvcs, under no meds too. Age and overall health helps Just to say, if I can live with 38k pvcs and although my case is a bit extreme, having 100/800 pvcs is really nothing to worry about. planning to get an ablation soon ☺️ Certain pieces of advice I've learned during this whole time dealing with pvcs : Avoid being fast, ie waking up fast, taking a jog directly, being fast and anxious. That's a recipe for pvcs Coughing really really helps knocking off a run of pvcs/nsvt Avoiding big/heavy meals/ dividing your meals into smaller portions Always have a bottle of water near you, I had terrible episodes and my best friend was and always will be water Magnesium MAGNESIUM Bending over and slouching helps knock off a run of pvcs A really good sleep keeps the pvcs away

Thank you Dr. Gupta for your efforts to educate us laymen suffering from PVc's. I am another guy who has 20,000 PVC's and when I ran across your video I gravitated and sat more relieved. My cardiologist had me on Beta Blockers to control a very slight case of high blood pressure as I have family history of arterial heart disease. Studies have shown I have none. I was referred to electrophysiologist who recommended RF ablation. It never sat well with me, and after seeing him twice I asked for a second opinion. May I say echocardiogram was normal, it was slightly enlarged however I'm 6'8' and my Dr. Said he believes my heart is simply a standard deviation due to my size, a proportional enlargement if you will. Anyway, After an episode of a pulse of 32, my electrophysiologist had me cold turkey off the beta blockers-which I was happy with and I seem to be doing fine. The thing is I have always had a low resting pulse rate. I also snore and will ask for a sleep test. Many Thanks.

Hey guys! Though I know PVCs are benign in the absence of an underlying heart condition, it still seems that one of the most difficult things to deal with for those of us with PVCs is the anxiety and fear that they cause. God has used them, and the anxiety they cause to bring me closer to Him, and I’ve learned to (imperfectly) set my hope on certain promises in His Word. I want to share a few truths that the Christian worldview offers that can eliminate these anxieties. First, the Christian worldview claims to eliminate the fear of death: “Since therefore the children share in flesh and blood, he himself [Jesus] likewise partook of the same things, that through death he might destroy the one who has the power of death, that is, the devil, and deliver all those who through fear of death were subject to lifelong slavery.” -Hebrews 2:14-15 How does Jesus free us from the slavery of the fear of death? Jesus said to her, “I am the resurrection and the life. Whoever believes in me, though he die, yet shall he live, and everyone who lives and believes in me shall never die.” -John 11:25-26. We’ve all sinned against the God who created the heavens and the earth, so we all deserve death. Jesus (fully God and fully man) never sinned- He did not deserve to die. When He died, He was dying the death that WE deserved to die. He died for OUR sins. We were found guilty in God’s court, and we all owed a fine: “DEATH”. Jesus paid that fine for us in full when HE died, so that by receiving Christ’s payment for our sins by faith, all our sins- past, present, and even future- are fully and finally forgiven. Three days later, Jesus rose from the dead, defeating death of all who trust in Him. Those who trust in Jesus will never ultimately experience death. Sure, they will die, and their spirit will be separated from their body for a time, but only temporarily. Even during this time they will be conscious, and with the Lord which is “far better” (Phil 1:23). When Jesus comes back, God will raise our bodies and make them immortal. As Paul writes “this mortal body must put on immortality” (1 Cor 15:53). We won’t live ‘in the clouds’ forever, but on a “New Earth”. It will be like this Earth, but without sin, pain, or death- and most importantly the full presence of God will be there (Rev 21:1-4). If we truly believe this, we will be able to laugh in the face of death. Nothing is more emboldening. 2. God is in complete control of absolutely everything. “Are not two sparrows sold for a penny? And not one of them will fall to the ground apart from your Father. But meven the hairs of your head are all numbered. Fear not,therefore; you are of more value than many sparrows.” -Matt 10:29-31 God is in complete control of every single PVC- and every single molecule at that! Nothing happens apart from Him- and if you are a Christian He is your loving Father! No PVC, PAC, AFib, Heart Attack, or any other condition escapes His sovereignty. Nothing can happen outside of His plan, which brings us to our next point. 3. If you love God, then you can be sure that these PVCs are good for you. That sounds very strange, but it is true. “Good” here is being used in the ultimate sense- I.e. what is best in God’s eyes, which is for us to be changed to be like Jesus. “And we know that for those who love God all things work together for good, for those who are called according to his purpose. For those whom he foreknew he also predestined to be conformed to the image of his Son” -Romans 8:28-29 If you are a Christian, your PVCs are a tool God is using to make you look more like Jesus. 4. If you love God, your suffering is “light” and “momentary” compared with what is to come: “We do not lose heart. Though our outer self is wasting away, our inner self is being renewed day by day. For this light momentary affliction is preparing for us an eternal weight of glory beyond all comparison” -2 Cor 4:16-17 God may choose to stop your PVCs today- or you may experience them the rest of your life. However: they will seem as nothing when we experience what was talked about briefly in point one- resurrected, perfected bodies on a perfected Earth with God forever. Hang in there Christian. The best is yet to come. [A brief disclaimer: these thoughts are only beneficial if Christianity is true; and I would argue that it is far and away the most internally consistent worldview philosophically, historically, morally, scientifically, and that God’s word is self-authenticating (email me if you are interested in resources to show these things)]. Hearing from you all has also been very helpful for me. If you want to talk about PVCs, or Jesus, or anything at all please email me: patricknickerson2 (at) gmail.com

It's OK to have them PACs PVCs as long as a person doesn't feel it at all, The man Never felt it so why would the doctors inform him off course they going to say it's normal and harmless as long as the individual never feels the sensation of it, I would be OK with it and not complaining if I never felt it but I feel horrific sudden thumps and that's scary and not normal. I know unhealthier people than me never feel these sensations of palpitations lol. There are obese people who never felt these if they did they would take it seriously on losing weight those sensations in your chest are like you're about to have an heart attack any moment until your nerves calm down it's fine again.

I would not call it minor or benign because there are people who go through much more than me and they have never felt the feeling of having palpitations, sudden thumps or any PVCs PACs Anxiety attack Panic Attacks etc. Everybody is different certain people's heart is better at coping with stressful situations while others as soon as they are anxious their heart is behaving erratic and retarded e.g. I walk up the stairs and my heart is thumping like it ran a marathon and am not fat or unhealthy lol.

I have and unusual question. When left laying, it instantly triggers pvc. Is that structural problems with the heart?
@dinehbee61683 жыл бұрын
That seems like more to do with the vagus nerve which will trigger pvcs.

How are you @York Cardiology ... I've been Type 1 Diabetic for 28 years, since I was 15 yrs old. Since I was 17 years old I felt my heart feel like jumping and spasming that made me short of breath. After 2 successful pregnancies, my doctors adviced me to get my tubes tide...so, I did. My heart felt like it was skipping every other heartbeat. I was rushed into the ER & was diagnosed with PVC's. I was referred to a cardiologist to find out I was dealing with PVC's & PAC's (top & bottom) & was told I had a very strong heart, but the cardiologist made me turn my head to avoid viewing the ultrasound of my heart. I also found on an old report from the cardiologist that he had written in 2 insufficient valves. I don't know what that means. I've been taking beta-blockers since 1999, but my PVC's and PAC's are getting worse as I age. SHOULD I BE CONCERNED? I haven't seen a cardiologist for awhile. They just don't tell me what I deserve to know. By the way...great videos. Thank you so much for sharing.🙏

I have 7% PVC burden and having an ablation soon because my Electrophysiologist said that if I let it go another 5 or 6 months I would develop PVC induced cardiomyopathy. Which I believe is the road to heart failure if the PVC's are not stopped.

@@football24091 - It was an overnight stay, had to be awake during the procedure because any pain or anasthisia stopped the palpitations cold. It went fine, they don't stop completely instantly, it takes a about a month or so before you realize they're gone. You still get one every now and then but that's pretty normal for everyone.

I am having 22,000+ PVCs a day with palpitations and Postural tachycardia, partial and full syncope (possible temporal lobe seizures) and chronic fatigue. These symptoms began when I was around 10years and still have no answers at 31! (PVCs used to be 2,000 a day 6 years ago) wish I had some answers to know what was going on

Have you talked to an electrophysiologist about an ablation it seems you would qualify for one

Glad I watched this video, because all my EKGs are normal, and bloodwork is normal, but I have PVCs sometimes. Usually every 5 heartbeats, a PVC. Usually they occur when I workout too hard (I am an avid cyclist), and/or when I don't get enough sleep, or dehydrated. I have never had a sleep study done, but people tell me I am a really loud snorer, and I get up several times a night. Now you have me thinking that I have sleep apnea, because my mom has to use a CPAP, and many of my other family member, including cousins, have to use them. I wonder if it is sleep apnea causing excessive PVCs. I will ask my doc another how to get scheduled for a sleep study. Thanks, doc!

My pvc frequency comes and goes (depending on my health). But now, many of them cause me to get lightheaded. Not all of them, but sometimes I will have 2-3 and I get very lightheaded which leads to dizziness. I may then feel “off rest of day”. They didn’t used to cause lightheadedness. They can be quite debilitating.

But if you have a normal Echo and Incomplete left bundle branch and complications with low blood volume from ( Myalgic Encephalomyelitis/CFS) should a person not be worried. My 1800 PVC's hurt like hell 24/7 and so uncomfortable with headaches/dizziness. What does my Cardio Dr. Tilley in Red Deer, AB. say...."I have no clue why your experiencing your symptoms and sent me home" with no explanation. Thank goodness for you Dr. Gupta I have learned so much from your videos.
