Long Term PAC and PVC Suffer. Need your support and guidance

Hello jc76.
My EP recommended that I simply start taking a basic magnesium supplement at 400mg daily instead of the Heart Calm. So I started yesterday and I take it with dinner. The brand is Natural Factors which was recommended by on LPs and it is called Magenesium Bisglycinate which is supposed to absorb well and be easier on the digestive system. I am hoping that this and the low dose of Metropolol will help reduce the frequency of my PVCs and PACs. I know that they will never go away, but a reduction would really help my mood and fear level.
Thank you,
RR1967

@rr1967 You did the right thing asking your EP about what to take. What will work and what is good for one individual may not be for another individual. I think that is important on MCC.
Mine wanted me to take Magnesium Citrate. I was taking another form of Magnesium and was not helping. So I switched to the citrate and wow they did not go completey away but drastically reduced. There are so many addititives to magnesium it can be confusing of what you should take and that is great you went to your EP. It is the same thing I did as the magnesium supplement I was taking was not citrate. Citrate is absorb very quickly in digestive system and is sometimes used to help with BM and constipation.
And you are right on about if it can reduse the PVCs and PACs it really affectgs your mental outlook and moods. Good luck. Sounds like you have a good EP and well up on supplements and what is best form of magnesium for you.
