I also get pvc's,pac's,svt,bigeminy,trigeminy and runs. I'm not on any bb's or ccb's I'm allergic to them. When my heart gets in the rhythm of bigeminy all I can do is go about my day sometimes laying down for a while will relieve them for a while but s soon as I get up it starts back up. I really haven't found anything that helps. I take a multi vitamin every day and vit D . I was going to start taking omega 3 and see if that helps.
I hope you feel better soon.

I have been having an unsual amount of skips lately and think some of it is bigeminy because they make me sit up and take notice. These also are the skips that I feel high up in my stomach and they are the worse for me. I think mine might be related to hormones as I am entering menapause soon. I'm 48. Not sure but I know what you mean about getting worried after an hour or so and they keep up. The last time this happenned was a couple of years ago and I went and had a moniter put on. It only recoreded about 148 in 24 hours but if felt like so many more. As I am typing this I have felt about 5 or 6 so that is a lot for me. I really do hate it because no matter how many times you are told it is not going to hurt you, it just seems so impossible to believe that.
My doctor told me that you can have thousands and you don't need to worry. Seems unreal doesn't it. I just want them to go away!

Thanks Frenchie and Tara for your reply! Hope you have palp free days ahead!!
These doctors that call arhythmias "begnin"! Grrrr! I don't think anything that interferes with your life is "benign". If they're benign, how come they give you powerful drugs with dangerous side effects to control them?
I think modern medicine overworks the word "benign", and apply it inappropriately to many conditions and situations. We need to coin a new word that means "A potentially serious and annoying condition that won't kill you quickly or suddenly". :)
Good luck Barbmag,,,
Well said, bobad!!!! And thank you!!!
