just a question on pvcs

by ajwwr82, Oct 07, 2008 08:01PM
Hi everyone. just wanted to let anyone who was wondering that my pvcs are benign and i have a structurally normal heart :-) (phewwww!) anyway i just had a question. when u guys feel ur pvcs do you ever check ur pulse to see if ur heart is still going? well cuz most of the time i have one i check my pulse up on my neck,which is more or less habit. i was just wonderin if anyone else does this or any other foolish things cuz i dont want to feel like an idiot because wen i do check my heart beat it seems as if everyone is lookin at me haha.
thanks

Oh HECK YES!  There have been times when I felt skips and there have NOT been skips in my pulse......The only thing I can figure is it is not big enough to register to the human hand, yet I feel them.  Like now, mine are back.  I had my hand on my pulse a few times yesterday. I try to hide it from my coworkers, but then again....too bad if they see me!

Same here - when i first started i was so obsessed that i kept a pulse diary taking and recording my pulse many times a day - doing graphs etc. - sounds crazy but it helped at the time. glad you kcow that everything is OK with your heart.
