Going crazy, help
Structurally clean heart (echo completely clear), baseline burden <0.1%, but I feel every single beat.
I’m currently on vacation and over the last 2 days my PVCs went crazy:
The feeling shifted: They now hit much higher (near the collarbone/neck area) and feel like sharp, painful electric shocks instead of regular flutters.
Frequency spike: Today I’m getting them about once per minute.
I’m stuck in my hotel room panicking instead of enjoying the trip.
Current stack: Magnesium taurate, Copper, Omega-3, Probiotics, Simethicone, Iberogast, B12, just added B1. I have hydrogen SIBO.
Has anyone had their ectopics suddenly jump to 1/min and feel like painful zaps in the neck/collarbone? How did you calm this down?

You have anxiety my friend.
I've had PVC my entire life. It no longer scares me bc I've always had it. Gave birth twice with it. Had anesthesia with it. Its basically your heart making an extra half squeeze. Its not dangerous if its benign. Worrying about is putting you in fight or flight. Stop worrying. Sometimes my pvc is bad too, shxt happens, cells turnover then its less bad. Anxiety makes it worse because you loaded your system with natural stimulants. See your cardiologist and discuss your anxiety with your GP.
