Avatar m tn •Have a slow heartbeat or your heart skips beats (irregular heartbeat) I'm guessing that my doctor thinks my heart palpitations are not considered an irregular heartbeat? I'll ask him but I found this a little scary.
Avatar n tn I have had irregular heartbeat and strong pulse feeling intermittent for a long time and it became all the time, mostly feel skipped beats and pressure in middle of chest in addition to what felt like adrenaline surges at the least little stress; have had all tests to check out (your husband should have these tests) and doc feels I am ok but recently prescribed a betablocker bystolic (new) and I've only taken for a week but no more irregular heart beat, no adrenaline surge, some antianxiet
Avatar m tn ve had zero skipped beats or SVT. If you have that extra pathway it could be causing you have those skipped pathways as well. Atenolol is controlling your fast heart rate and now you notice the PACs because your SVT is being controlled. Also, i found out that PACs or those skipped beats can trigger SVT as well. You didn't state what happened what caused you to go into SVT but PACs are a known trigger.
116881 tn?1189755823 My Dr just took me off of Hyzaar and has put me on 5 mgs of Bystolic per day to control skipped beats and my HBP. Well, the skips are much better but my pressure is still up and my pulse is really low for me -- like in the mid 50's!!! I feel like garbage. I have only been on it for a week. My Dr wants me to stick it out a little longer. So her I am needing take one today for my BP but my pulse is sooooo low. ANyone else on Bystolic? Will this get better?
Avatar f tn I am writing because about a month ago I started noticing my heart skipping beats more often. My heart had done this many times in the past but not like it has been doing this month. It happens more often and the feeling is very strong. It is happening everyday many times a day. I noticed that it does not matter what I am doing and my heart does not have to be racing at the time it happens. Actually it has happened many times this month when I was just sitting down.

Avatar n tn I recently stopped the flecainide and have had no significant a-fib that I can discern, although some skipped beats. I do continue to take bystolic and azor for high blood pressure. However, since discontinuing the flecanide, I have had what I would describe as a pounding heartbeat (not rapid), dizziness, and consistent blood pressure readings of 140s/50s.
1272987 tn?1274671710 Back in November I was hospitalized for severe heart palpitations, it felt like my heart was going to explode out of my chest. The ER staff did an EKG among other tests and discovered a pronounced sinus arrhythmia. I am a 22 year old female, non-smoker who until recently was pretty active. Since the diagnosis and the prescription of Bystolic from my primary care physician I've attempted to get back to my previous level of exercise.
1933354 tn?1323362834 I went on Bystolic for rapid beats and I think I'm onto something here regarding my GAD. I feel better! Could this really be the cure? I take half of a 5mg and my heart doesn't race alarming me that I am anxious. Now really smooth and feel much less GAD. If anyone else has had some good results by taking this please let me know.
Avatar n tn t notice their heart beats, but those of us with heart issues often have an awarness of their beats. He said it was as if we had a direct line from the brain to the heart that makes us sensitive to what our heart is doing. It may be that your awarness has nothing to do with beta blockers. It is just that you have learned to tune in to what is happening with your heart.
Avatar n tn The more I worried about my skipped beats the worse they got. When I got my Anxiety under control the skipped beats were not as bad. This medicine is wonderful it works within 15 minutes and you feel normal again. i dont feel "high" just normal. I totally understand everyones fear of this problem, because my skipped beats sometimes lasted for 2 weeks at a time. I am much better now and have only occasionally skipped beats.
Avatar n tn I am a 27 year old male who is perfectly healthy, aside from the fact that I take a beta blocker, Bystolic, for high blood pressure. Two years ago, I was evaluated by a cardiologist. I had ECGs, Echocardiogram, Holter, Stress test, Stress echo and everything came back normal. I am scheduled to see a cardiologist in a week and a half. I have been monitoring my blood pressure and it tends to hover in the 130-135 / 80 range. I am quite worried about the increase in PVCs.

280234 tn?1532986249 Hi, I'm a 33 year old Caucasian female. I'm 5'4, 145 lbs. I developed high blood pressure in 2002 (when I was 22)during the last months of pregnancy, & after the birth of my daughter. My OB then said I did not have Toxemia. I had a really difficult labor having her, and my BP got really high during the delivery. After the delivery, my BP started running higher than it used to, like about 154/95.

Avatar m tn for the last few days my heart has been skipping a beat every 20-40 beats. it causes a strange sensation in my chest. the other night they were much closer together my ears started ringing and my arm hurt i thought i would pass out. today i feel very week and out of my head. i have been diagnosed with techacardia, but it doesn't seem to be acting up. someone told me it could be anxiety attacks. can panic/anxiety attacks make your heart skip a beat like this?
Avatar n tn that's probably from the Bystolic getting your blood pressure down too low. Did you lose weight recently? Can you check your BP when you feel light-headed? Maybe your doc will reduce your dosage. Also, make sure the light-headedness doesn't result in a fall.

Avatar f tn I have been having, over the past 10 years, symptoms of what seem to be skipped heart beats. Out of the blue, I get a feeling of somthing being shoved from about my sternum into my throat and at that moment, I feel like I can not breathe. Then, when that pressure releases, I get a huge, and somewhat painful, thud in the center of my chest and it is gone. This happens with in seconds.
764838 tn?1236876652 I have the skipped heart beats.. prob about 2 yrs now.. mine are like I go a month and nothing, then ill go 4 or 5 days in a row and have them maybe 5 times a hour. I have had all the test done as well, many ekg's echo, stress test, and xrays of my heart. I hate them, but as im seeing many of us have skipped heart beats.... i cant see what else it would be cuz its like a thump, then a tiny odd feeling kinda warm but not really, then it goes back to normal beating......
Avatar n tn I'm reading posts concerning skipped beats and this is exactly how my 22 year old son describes his problem. When he was about 12 he developed hyperthyroidism/graves disease. It was treated and is now under control with synthroid. He started calling ambulances and going to emergency rooms approximately 2 1/2 years ago and this tread has steadily gotten worse. He has had so many tests and many are repeat tests (MRI, blood tests, holter monitors - the list goes on).
Avatar m tn I ahve a mechanical aortic valve . since my surgery i ahve developed skipped beats off and on. Iam also hypothyroid on thyronorm. Feel faint when i have these skipped beat episodes.
Avatar m tn I have been expieriencing my heart skipping beats...it will beat then stop and beat hard once then back to normal. Also every once in a while too my heart would feel like it is fluttering and I can feel it in my throat and I try to move around and get it to stop but it ill last 5 min or so. Ive been to my MD multiple times and had a 24 hr monitor, ekg, and echocardiogram. She just says its anxiety but it happens when im not even thinking about anything.
Avatar n tn I have been having heart palpitations for a few weeks now. no tachycardia, brady, etc...only thing I notice is I can feel my pulse in my wrist and right before I feel the palpitation I feel a missed beat in my wrist...any ideas?
Avatar f tn Hello all. I am driving myself crazy! I am up right now crying and counting my skipped beats. It's about 6 per minute. Sometimes less sometimes more. I feel okay but they are freaking me out! I've had this on and off for years and a few months ago I had a 24hr holter and bloodwork. Holter showed "predominantly normal rhythm with rare pvc." Told it was fine. My vitamin D came back very low and about a week after taking extra my skipped beats were almost non existent.
Avatar f tn I recently had gall bladder surgery Jan 21st 08 and since then i have had a lot of problems with feeling my heart skip beats I had a ekg before surgery they said every thing fine.
