icesktr189 Posted February 24, 2012 Report Share Posted February 24, 2012 I think I am having PVCs... my heart does that flip/flutter thing. Problem is it has been going on for days. I get one pretty much every 5 to 10 mins. Should I go in or just wait it out? I dont remember having them for this long before. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Clairefmartin Posted February 24, 2012 Report Share Posted February 24, 2012 Go in. I had a doc tell me if it was once in a while, and just a few - normal. If it's that frequent and thats not your "normal" - get it checked asap. Not an issue to mess with. IMO. (((hugs)))Claire Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
brethor9 Posted February 25, 2012 Report Share Posted February 25, 2012 Hi DaniI have been having the exact same problem for a couple weeks now (started out of the blue)....I am getting the flutters/ skipped beats every couple minutes along with lightheadedness and sweating.....had Holter done and my auto doc stuck me on a beta blocker which seems to be helping a bit along with extra magnesium but they are still occurring too much for my liking hang in there...but it doesnt hurt to get it checked just to put your mind at easeBren Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MomtoGiuliana Posted February 25, 2012 Report Share Posted February 25, 2012 I agree that if you are experiencing something new it is a good idea to contact your doctor. I used to have episodes very regular PACs/PVCs that would go on for days (like 2 or 3 a minute). I know it is scary and uncomfortable. One thing that did help this, for me, was IV saline.
