Same problem! Just spent July 1 in emergency with PVCs! They sent me home, I'm terrified. Started ozempic for weight loss, not diabetic. 0.25mg worked should have stayed there. But at 1 mg for 5 weeks and all hell broke loose. The anxiety with this med is uncontrollable. How long does it take to wear off?

Update - it took 3 weeks to get Ozempic out of my system. Anxiety over arrythmias was horrible. I still have brady and tachy arrythmias but after learning that many people live with them has been educational for me. But no help from cardiologist, my "non-urgent" appointment is Aug 30! Had to stop Metoprolol due to bradycardia. Thankfully I have a wonderful GP who probably knows everything I need to know.
The problem I need help with now is my chronic insomnia. Haven't slept in 50 years, wish I was exaggerating! I know being chronically tired has affected all aspects of my life, but now I'd like to know just how much it might also contribute to arrythmias. Anyone have some info on this?

Thank you for this group, I have calmed down a lot from what I'm learning here.
