I have ectopic heartbeats all the time, and am at my wits end, I feel like dying everytime my heart skips the beats, I am on medication but, this still is not a great help, I stopped smoking about 11 years ago, hope I havent damaged my heart to much.
STOP smoking dude. If you smoke A cigaratte, it takes 10 minutes off your life.
STOP FU@$#$% smoking dude. If you smoke A cigaratte, it takes 10 minutes off your life.
Good luck in your effort to quit. I viewed your website and your family is absolutely BEAUTIFUL. You've got great motivations, no doubt. Looks like a beautiful life!
Thank you for the advice. I've been smoking for twenty five years. I think it's time I gave them up. For myself and for my family. Thanks for the motivation.

If you read on the forum under PVC's and PAC's the FIRST thing you will read is that smoking causes ectopic beats. PLEASE PLEASE PLEASE stop smoking. Please do it for your children. The greatest influence in a child's life is what they see their parents do. I would bet you money that if you quit smoking you would notice that your heartbeats probably will go back to normal right away. I'm sure you know that smoking hardens your arteries. My cousin was a smoker and died at 40 years old while waiting with her daughter at the bus stop. The autopsy report indicated hardened arteries secondary to cigarette smoke. I seriously doubt that your combination of cold medications 10 years ago is still the culprit... probably more than likely the nicotine. I wish you luck!
If you want to live long and prosper then STOP smoking. There have been studies that have shown the effects of smoking one or two pack a day is the same.
So I would go to a doctor and get on Wellbutrin or something to help you kick the habit. Then start walking and light aerobics.
A per the ecoptic beats. Everyone has them.
