Jacquie Yes, yes, yes. They seem to run periodically for me. I will get them for several days or weeks in a row, then they are gone. It is scary and uncomfortable, but I find the more I try not to focus on them, the better off I am. Absolutely NO caffeine, and controlling my stress levels with meditation also seems to help. Sometimes, when I just go on about my day, and ignore them as best as I can, they go away.
Now this may sound strange, but for me they seem to be connected with the amount of gas/bloat in my stomach at the time. Because, I will have a PVC and then burp. I get them sometimes after I eat. Weird, huh? I also get palpitations with them, but they may be considered all a part of palpitations.
I've had ALL the tests, including EKG, holter moniter, echocardiogram, and nothing...
So, docs weren't much help. When I tried to bring up the relation to the stomach issue, they poo-pooed that, so I am at a loss.
You are not alone with this one.
