Hi:

Don't mean to come here and vent all the time but, I'm actually feeling pretty good lyme symptom wise and out of the blue now I'm dealing with PVC's Just started like 4 or 5 days ago after I had a cold.

I actually ended up at the ER today for a few hours of monitoring, etc. and now they want me to wear a Holter monitor on Mon.

I'm getting these things like every 5 minutes or so....no pain, etc. just this hiccup coming from my chest and you could see it on the monitor. Man, I'm so sick of this. The Er doc didn't think it was related to Lyme and my LLMD wasn't to concerned either.

Do a lot of you get them? how often, say in a day? And do you take anything for them?

Gotta say I'm a little spooked by this.

Thx,
Dave

commmon with babesia dave....not sure if you've been tested or treated..

I had them..they were benign pvcs..treated with attenol just because they made ME so nervous..eventually after tx for babs they went totally away...

always good to get checked out. the dr. can tell if they are single or multi start pvcs if they are benign or not...single are ok..they'll let you know whether to worry or not..soound like they're not too worried, but just checking to be sure...

I've had these too. in addition to what your dr. has you doing, limit or eliminate caffeine. That makes a difference for me.

Thanks for your input Lisa.... Yeah, right now I'm somewhat of a nervous wreck over this, which is probably making these things worse. I'll be fitted with the Holtor Monitor tomorrow. Both my LLMD and PCP are aware and waiting to see what the test(s) show.
