newbie with palpitations (stress stomach benign)
What you're describing sounds like PVCs. Scary, aren't they? I have them,
too. Mine get worse with stress and stomach upset/gas, and have been
diagnosed as "benign". I can go months without noticing any, and then have
a stretch of weeks where they're **very** noticeable. Mine diminish with
excercise, I'm never short of breath, and there is no corresponding pain.
(I understand from what I've read about PVCs and what my doctor told me that
those are additional indications that these are 'nothing to worry about' at
this time.)
Did your doctor tell you that alcohol and caffiene -can- exacerbate them?
Welcome to a.s.m.
