Hello to all my HW peeps--
OK---Yesterday--got a short e-mail from my Cardiologist-from my 48 hr Holter (Where I feel the NEW irregular beats--NOW PVCs..BEFORE all were SVT )--If you recall- I often get a mild "Electric shock" sensation w some of them--(When in the ER--the "Shocks" correlated WITH the PVCs !!
His short comment...
"Rob, got results of holter. You had isolated PVCs--an average of 11 per hr (from my calculation--that's only bout 240 a day--much less than I thought)--He continued--"No further treatment needed".
OK--I am going to see him,.this Wed--for followup--
He did later write to me--after I asked ..re: Tenormin increase (I take a 25 mg Tenormin in morning--he said--I could take a half--12.5 mg--at nite !)
MY big questions-which I will ask him
1-WHY this "Change"...from the SVT runs..(of 6.7...8 beats--on rare occasion)--to THIS--where they are happening every say...(But not as often)
2-WHY the .."POSITIONAL" aspect..? They definitely occur more often when I am sitting at my computer--AND my torso..is TURNED...to the...LEFT...!!! (Also--when sitting & slouching)-
Somehow--in some way--this is exacerbating the "irritablity".,..of the PVCs..!
Please--anyone--any thoughts..?? (Re: my 2 questions)
Can anyone relate..??
I know..he does NOT feel,..I need an ablation !
BUT--this "unpleasant" feeling--is driving me...NUTS !!
Will this..or CAN this..."Calm down"...even a bit..??
PS--YES--I AM taking Magnesium (800 mg/day ...& CoQ10...200mg/day..AND Omega 3...Fish Oil )--Cut out ALL caffeine--(Coca Cola--Coffee..& chocolate )
Thanks--
Regards,
Rob
