fast heart rate/pvc?
by char chavez, Sep 21, 1999 12:00AM
I was wondering if a fast heart rate can also be related to pvc's? I have had several tests done and they all were normal and have been diagnosed with PVC's. However, every once in a GREAT while I get a very fast heart rate and have to sit down until it passes. It is very frightening and if I move or anything it feels like it will come out of my chest. I am on tenormin(25mg) and it doesnt really affect my pvc. I was wondering also if it could be the cause? I tried up to 100mg of the tenormin but nothing except extreme tiredness.
