Had PVCs and SVT develop in pregnancy - now having more symptoms....

[Itigo]

Hi, not sure what is going on. I developed PVCs and SVT while pregnant last year and took Flecainide throughout the pregnancy. They cleared up almost completely after the birth and I stopped taking the Flecainide as my Dr advised.

Have recently moved abroad, everything is very settled and happy, no stress. Not working, just a Mum!
In the last 3 weeks I have started to get the following symptoms - infrequent but very noticeable PVCs, and SVT runs. Pain or discomfort in my chest on the left at top of breast - can last for a few hours, shortness of breath on resting or walking/exercise - very random, some days good, others awful, feeling lightheaded on and off - sometimes quite scarily - eg Saturday had to sit for 20 minutes to stop feeling like I was going to pass out when in town - I had eaten, wasn't rushing, was with my family.....

I have had a chest xray which was clear apart from some thoracic scoliosis, had cardiac enzyme test, D-Dimer, Iron level, thyroid etc etc all of which were normal. GP took one BP test which was slightly raised - 138/80 (mine is historically low - 110/70, has been 90/60. He gave me a Ventolin inhaler which I only take if I am really breathless. Am on list to see the Cardio but he's full til the end of July. These symptoms are making me feel progressively more fed up. Does anyone have any ideas what it could be?

Hi,

Am living in a country not dissimilar to my home country so diet is the same. Am living by the sea so no altitude problems and pollution is much less!!

Did your move "abroad" cause any fundamental change in your diet or in the altitude at which you are living, or perhaps to a place with higher air pollution?
