Pressure

Does anyone else feel pressure in head, ears and neck during a PVC episode?  I've had PVC's for approx. 10 yrs. and do not take medication.  Cardiologist told me I have a structurally normal heart and the PVC's were benign.

Oh yes, I feel pressure in my neck, ears, head and chest. I have PVC's and PAC's. I notice the pressure more when I have PAC's. It is uncomfortable to say the least. I hope you feel better. Have a happy holiday.

Thank you for your reply Soopster.  I am sorry that you feel those things too.  I also hope that you feel better soon.  Happy Holidays to you and yours too.  God Bless.  

By the way, I've seen "PACs" very often on the posts.  What does "PAC" stand for?  Since PVC stands for "Premature Ventricular Contrations" I am thinking that PAC would stand for "Premature Atrial Contractions" ~ would this be correct?

Correct, seems strange that a Atrial Contraction would be felt more than a Ventricle Contraction, but that's what I read Bon-Bon to say.

Thank you for your reply Jerry_NJ.  

Now, instead of assuming, I will know what PAC's stand for when I read them on the post.

Wonderful Holidays to you and yours.

Well, I just posted that I felt a pressure in my neck and ears during a PAC, at least I think it was a PAC, both times I wore a holter monitor and noticed I had flutters, they were that. Anyway, I was typing and I noticed the dropping in the tummy, and I tried to ignore it, but, it scared me big time, and during it, I got hot in the head and had the pressure in my ears and neck.  I am chalking it up to anxiety as I am very anxious lately. I am so glad I found this thread.

The one I posted was also in this forum, plus in the anxiety forum under "I hope this is only Anxiety"

God bless you all and I hope you are all doing better.

Hugs
