Hello, I too have suffered from PVC's. I also went through a battery of tests ( Mutiple EKG's, echo, echo/tress combination, 30 and 24 day monitors and even a CT angiogram of the heart).

am new to the site and have recently been battling the worse anxiety I have ever had. It all started with heart palpitations. I was to the cardiologist, then the Primary Care Doctor and finally to a Electro Cardio Physiologist. All the routine tests were reviewed. I had them originally done in 2008 ...

Hi I was wondering if any one has taken Lopressor tartrate ( metropolol)for skipped/ fluttered heart beats? If so, has any one had any success? I have been on it for well over a week, maybe closer to two weeks now and I still continue to get these annoying flutters. Sometimes they are a bit violent ...
