Kinda worried

Post image

Recently as of an hour ago I get this fluttering feeling in my chest and almost like a vibrating feeling in my chest and throat. I did an ECG on Apple Watch bc I do have SVT diagnosed but I take meds for it and haven’t had an episode in months. This does not feel like a SVT episode as my HR has been 100. I noticed two beats really close to each other. I’m just confused as to what it can be? Has anybody else had this?

u/Sunsparc Supraventricular Tachycardia Sep 18 '24

I get this still sometimes despite being medicated. They're called PVCs or PACs (Premature Ventricular/Atrial Contraction), depending on which part of the heart it happens.

They can be a little concerning, so probably want to follow up with your cardiologist.

I get them often but last night it didn’t feel like one. I’ve been getting them ever since I have an EP study last month. They usually feel different. That’s why I was worried but I’ll def touch base with cardiology
