        <title>Chest Pain and Bigeminy</title>
        <description> So I have a question for those of you that have had frequent PACs/Atrial Bigeminy/SVT.  I have had a FULL workup cardiac wise and have no cardiac disease or other issues that would predispose me to chest pain.  Since being in almost constant bigeminy, I have noticed that I have been getting some chest pain/pressure with exertion or high heart rates and the bigeminy. I am certain that it is not an urgent medical issue, as I have been cleared. But wondering if anyone else experiences that when they have higher heart rates or exertion with the bigeminy/PACs.  

Thanks.</description>

            <description><![CDATA[ I went in for the PACs/PVCs and because my heart rate was bouncing all over. But I was starting to get more low readings, I figured it was better to be in the ER and all that would end up happening was a few hours of monitoring. But it didn&#039;t stop. I&#039;m not sure on the burden but when I was checking it was in the 25-30% range and seemed to stay there.  I think at on point it was higher.  I should get results later today or tomorrow. I am still a bit wiped out it will probably be another day before medications work through and out. Currently on this:<br />
Diltiazem 120 mg cd x2<br />
Propafenone (rythmol) 225 mg x2<br />
Eliquis 5mg x2<br />
Meclizine 25mg as needed this is for dizziness and vertigo. <br />
<br />
I have an appointment on Friday to review and make more plans. We had tried to up the diltiazem to 240mg x2 but it didn&#039;t stop it. So this was his next change. I&#039;m just tired right now and lightheaded, but the day must go on.]]></description>

            <description><![CDATA[ I just got out of the hospital, I was having PACs and PVCs. My heart rate was bouncing from 30 to 100 bpm. For the past 24 hours. I did have some pain a couple of times, but mostly just some discomfort. They did an ultrasound of my heart and it was structurally sound.  Then 3 medication changes has me kind of wiped out at the moment. Hopefully you had a better day.]]></description>
