I don’t know. He also doesn’t believe that postural ectopics are a thing. He thinks people just don’t know what their heart is doing until they lie down at night. My Primary said he’s 1000% sure postural ectopics are real and he thinks they are related to a vagal phenomenon. Specialists of all stripes get locked into what they learned in med school and many are just not aware, or interest in things like supplements. It’s rare to find an open minded doctor. So I do my own research. And my primary physician ROCKS.

I'm having issues with my cardiologist, also. I'm having some scary beats that only come occasionally. The few days he let me have a monitor of course they didn't happen. Now is telling me I'm fine. But my primary is very into listening to me, and will do what I ask, within reason. He is here (Minnesota) on a visa from Canada, where evidently they treat patients better!

My cardiologist recommended magnesium years ago. I have PVC's and PAC's that my cardiologist said were normal. He said he has them, everyone has them, it's just I can feel every one of mine. I take 25mg metoprolol 2× daily as well as a multivitamin, triple magnesium complex, fish oil, Co q10, B complex. It's been months since I had the PVC's enough to really notice.
