Positional PVC's Anyone??

[Michelle147]

Hello all! Am I ever glad I found this site. I'm a newbie but definately not new to these dang pvc's. I was wondering if anyone else has what I call "positional pvc's"? By this I mean I can trigger them by lifting my right arm over my head, bending over, turning/twisting when only moving my upper chest, not turning my waist, reaching for things especially when reaching with my right arm over to the left side of my body. (Just seems to be my right arm) Even riding on a bumpy road can set them off which I think is very strange. Also with my last pregnancy, when the doc would have me lay on my back and she'd palpitate my belly it would set them off as well. Other things that trigger them are stretching while holding my breath, working on a burp that is stuck in my throat and talking without taking a breath. So basically anything can set them off! Just wondering if I'm the only weirdo here. If anyone else gets these "positional pvc's" please share.

I get every one that you just mentioned.

I feel mine are very positional as well.  And as with some of the other commenters, the position has changed over time, but one that always seems to set it off is leaning forward in a chair.  Pretty much sets it off (for a second at least) every time I lean forward in a certain way (especially at my desk at work when I do this).  Like some others, I have also wondered about possible Vagus nerve issues, as it seems to all be connected with issues in abdomen/torso and stomach.  So you are not alone--and yes, the doctors will look at you like you are crazy--but all of us experiencing the same thing cant be a coincidence.  Hang in there--and good luck.  I am just recently diagnosed and am going to try the beta blockers, but I know that does not always help.
