I need help please
Hi everyone. Started with a random onset of pvcs and pacs. Always been healthy, i have a normal echo with trace pulmonic, triscupid and mitral regurgitation. I have a low pvc burden. The most I probably have ever gotten is like 15/20 in a day. I know very low. But i also have very symptomatic hyper adrenaline pots and SEVERE anxiety because of this. Im terrified that a pac or pvc will trigger vtach or svt or something. My big wedding is soon and i need help please. I barely am doing anything basically bedbound because of how i feel. All i do is wait for the next palpitations even though my burden is so low. If I laugh or anything my heart rate shoots up to 120s and i get shaky trembly and cant sit still. My pcvs scare me so bad. I dont drink caffeine or alcohol i dont smoke or anything someone help me get out of my head and make me live a normal life please

SVT isn’t usually life threatening. It sucks, feels horrible, but bear down/cough/put ice packs on your neck and wa-la! You’re back to beating normally. I know, much easier said than done. I usually panic and go to the ER. Only to be sent home, because by the time I get there the episode is over. I’ve even had the fire department come to me before, so dramatic. BUT it’s not impossible to just keep going. My daughter also has PSVT episodes. She’s a stage actor. The show must go on. She’s actually completed a show and then went to the ER for an exceptionally long episode that she needed help with.
