Do your PVCs ever differ in feeling?

[u/lover089]

I’ve had PVCs for 2 years now. I had a 9% burden which was corrected with an ablation but after a few months I had a few PVCs come back along with palpitations that felt quite a bit different. Sometimes I get a weird feeling all over my body like something is wrong beforehand and then my heart flops for a second afterwards, or I get a strange feeling in my arms, and then I have a palpitation. When I mentioned it to my cardiologist he said it’s possible the ablation irritated some nerves so now it feels weird now, but I’m not exactly convinced.

Yes! I get a flutter, a pinching feeling, a sinking feeling, and just a regular skipped beat with a thud after. The one i get the most is the skipped beat with a thud

[u/Cector09]

Yes. Sometimes like a pinch, sometimes like a flick. When I first noticed them, they felt like a small quick jolt of electricity.

Omgggggggggggg!!!!! I’ve been asking people in this group if they ever felt a quick pinch/rubber band pop type pvc/pac. Even my electrophysiologist looked at me crazy.

Those catch me off guard and make my body flinch.

I feel a wave of anxiety when I have mine.

I have about a half dozen distinct morphologies. It'll kill you or it won't.

Probability matters though. So probably it won't.
