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

Just because they are benign doesn’t mean it’s not impacting your quality of life. Some people never feel them or aren’t bothered by them others are highly symptomatic. I too was highly symptomatic. I tried different meds until I found one that worked well for me. Sometimes it’s trial and error. After about a year I developed side effects from the meds and in consultation with my EP opted for an ablation. I’ve now gone from 10k a day to under 100. Feeling great. If you’re miserable - push back and ask for treatment. You don’t have to suffer.

Thanks for reaching out Vicki. I am determined this time to push back. Don't get me wrong, my doctors all have been very kind and understanding but that doesn't help at 6 at night when they suddenly flare and you feel paralyzed by fear. I'm going on the 13 of Jan and I'm going to have everything written down. All that I've learned and read and felt. I'm not going to take reassurance from them...well I will, but I want to know more about magnesium and ablation and other meds that may be better for me. I cannot walk around all day just waiting for them to jump out and send me reeling. Again, thank you for responding. I am so happy I found you all.
