Stress Center Peer Support

Hi Melissa51, sorry no one has responded to your post! I just now saw it today. I have dealt with PVC's for 5 years. They are worse this year due to stress which retriggered panic attacks.

If you ever need to talk, please feel free to PM me. I know for me, in part, they are due to hormonal changes as I am 43 and in perimenopause but they are definately worse with anxiety!!

I have been told also that the ones I have are benign and I know that brings a measure of relief but still are scaring when you are having them!!

Try looking through past posts. Sometimes just knowing you are not the only one is helpful!

I will pray for you too.

Take care, Tammy

Tammy, thank you for responding. I looked at the old posts and it seems like PVC's are very common in people with anxiety. We must all have some sort of over-stimulation somewhere. I just wish it would all stop! I have an appt. with the cardiologist this week and hopefully he will say everything is fine. It would be nice if they had some way to put an end to these dreadful things instead of telling us to deal with them. They certainly do cause panic attacks when they are bad. I always get an adrenalin rush with mine and here we go again. Sometimes I take klonopin and it calms me down a bit. I may take you up on that pm offer if I can figure it out.
Thanks again, Melissa

Hi Melissa,

I was just checking in this morning and saw your post. If you want to PM me, just click on my pic or name above it. It will then give you the option of inviting me to a PM.

I take xanax and that has helped me. I may be switching to klonopin as it is a longer lasting benzo.

I know what you mean about the adrenaline rush! Not fun!! I hope you are able to get some answers this week.

Take care,
Tammy
