Your story seems so similar. I currently am getting about 3-10 pvc's a day. I never get them back to back or within the same half hour. I have switched to a regime of 250mg Mag Citrate, multivitamin, and fish oil twice a day. This worked great for about 2-3 weeks and it knocked them down to about 1 pvc a day and I went a length of none in a week. I recently ran out and went a few days without and then replaced it with Magnesium Oxide and they have got significantly worse. I have read this is not as easily absorbed, today I am going back to the vitamin store to get the citrate.
My pvc's have only showed themselves after I have been dieting on about a 1200 calorie a day diet. I have lost about 52lbs in 4 months. I also quit alcohol at the beginning of the year in January. PVC's started in February. I never had any pvcs when I weighed my original weight and was drinking every night. You would think it would be the other way around.
I have seen my GP twice and a cardiologist that said my heart was fine so when I have a pvc now I just breath deep and keep going. Due to my dieting I believe it may be electrolyte deficiency. I believe it is magnesium def because I also get twitching in my left eyelid and the muscles between my cheek and nose. |
