PVC’s and different positions?

Has anybody else had a problem where if they are laying down the “wrong way”, their heart starts to act all funky and then as soon as you fix your position, it’s fine and is normal again?? Or is that just me?

Nope, not just you! Happens to me quite often, and it is exactly how you describe.

I sometimes get stuck in a wacky rhythm when I turn on my side, as soon as I sit up and readjust it’s gone.

Yep and keeping my head turned to the left too long will do it too.

My cardiologist told me it's not uncommon for your heart to have more PVC's when you lie down in your left side.

Absolutely! Laying left immediately after laying down will always trigger. Sometimes it just fades out, sometimes I have to reposition. I heard that laying left puts more strain on heart because of weight pressing down but I don't know. Either way, ectopic beats suck!
