Yep, PVCs. Anything new in your life the last few days?

Thanks for reply and confirming what I thought. Nothing new. They accompanied gastric symptoms that I often experienced prior to going into afib. The rate was around 100 - 106 initially. I drank a Low Na V8 and took a diltiazem. The rate has come down to 80 and the PVC's as of now have stopped.

I am sensitive to irregular beats. I feel all of them, Afib, PAC, PVC which then means hard to relax until they stop.

I can relate. It sux when one is highly symptomatic, but I guess the silver lining is that we get on it right away doing....something...getting help, taking a PIP, looking back at what might have set us off. Those who don't know don't know.

Hi JakeS
From my personal experience not only did I reverse my AF to SR with my protocol but I had previously developed evidence of second degree AV blocks ( Mobitztype 1 and a left anterior fasicular block) and both have disappeared. However I still have 2-3 PVC a minute which means at least for me that is not responsive to my protocol. If interested in my protocol search books under ATRIAL FIBRILLATION and cover has a physician holding binoculars.
