Hi, I'm new to the forum although I have been reading all your posts for some months now... and they've been my best source of reassurance. Thank you!!! My PVCs started in April of this year, I am a 36 yr old female. My first attack came on suddenly and lasted for weeks. EKG showed PVCs and sinus tachycardia, the echo confirmed the PVCs but heart structure was good. The holter showed 500 PVCs in 24 hours.
I now take atenolol (12.5 mg twice a day). I've had one attack of SVT induced by excercise.
I was doing better until today when, after a day of lifing and moving furniture, I had an attack of PVCs. One after another, every other beat, every three beats... you name it. It lasted for about an hour. During this period I also got a bout of diarrhea and felt extremely thirsty. My question is, does anybody ever suffer attacks of PVC that are accompanied by diarrhea and extreme thirst?? After it was all said and done I was exhausted!!!
Thanks again for being there!!!
