Does Anxiety/Panic cause PVC's

[Michaelccc]

i'm a 34 year old male and have been suffering with anxiet/panic since the age of 23. I have never in that time felt PVCs . i remember feeling like 1 pvc every year never paid much attention to it , didnt know what it was. About 2 months ago my aunt died from cancer and i started to feel pvcs a few times a day. i went to a doctor to find out what it was and was explained that it was PVCs. Here is my question does anxiety cause pvcs or do pvcs cause anxiety. If anxiety causes pvcs then do they cause the actual pvcs or does anxiety act as a catalyst in bringing out the existing condition in the heart. Meaning - my understanding of pvcs is that pcvs are caused by an "extra" pathway in the heart, if that is so then how can anxiety cause a pvc a pvc is described as some physical problem. can someone explain this to me? Also if anxiety and panic causes pvcs then what if i have a huge panic attack what would happen lots of pvcs over and over and over ? and if so what would keep this from turning into V-tach? someone please help. One more question if most people have pvcs as doctors sometimes tell us then why aren't beta blockers prescribed to everyone?? i mean most of the population

Thanks!  Yes, where does the time go?  I can remember thinking, "How could someone be out of high school for 25 years?"  NOW, I know that, and then some....hahahaha.  

After a lifetime in Ohio, we relocated to NC a couple of years ago (job).  It is really nice here and although I miss the snow, I don't miss shoveling 2 feet in zero degree weather...LOL.  Our kids graduated from OH colleges, but I still love NC State!!

Have a great day!!

Well, thanks to everyoe who helped me. I just don't understand people making fun of as many people as they can on A HEART FORUM.

Again, Thank you especially Oatbucket. You really helped me to Hold the Hope.

Bye, everyone. I can't watch people pick on others or myself and say nothing. I'm deleting this forum. Goodluck to you all.

BE Well and Hold The Hope for each other and yourselves.

I thought it was "If you can't stand the heat, get out of the kitchen."  At least that's how we say it here in MS.   lol!

Don't know what happened when I posted.  I read your bio and saw that you are married for 30 yrs, THAT too is something to be VERY proud of.  CONGRATS!!!!  BTW, we LOVE NC, we were stationed and lived at Ft. Bragg twice for 11 yrs combined.  Our son went to NC State.  We love the NC beaches, and the mountains.  

[Barbarella]

I just read your bio and see that you are married 30 yrs THAT

[Barbarella]

THANKS!!  Time flies so fast, it doesn't seem like 45 yrs.

[Momto3]

What a waste of time and energy.  Sad, that adults take themselves down to this level.  Just my .02.

Barbarella, 45 years!!  Now, THAT is something worth mentioning : )  CONGRATS!!

[slowbrain]

The defense spoke for itself. Enough of this. Goodnight and hope you have a good day 2morrow. Tomorrow being 8/2/07.

My husband gave me that nickname "Barbarella" before we were even married, and has called me Barbarella for the last 45 yrs.

I attacked you because you upset out bucket..when? i dont remember that post was it a while ago? And no i didnt read the message or apology..What were you apologizing for? And No i do not think you make fun of people i was not referring to you at all i have never had a problem with you..and as someone who used to suffer from EXTREME panic i was concerned that surfgirls comment about the organ failure was gonna be taken the wrong way like alot of stuff on here..And your quote "you and me you started it i was staying out until you went after me"..WHEN???? im not getting it when did i go after you tell me where this post is and if you are correct i apologize.

[FLBrat]

Dont you love that this is going on in your post?  

Who lost track of topic?

V, I love your accent when you type.  Awake, huh?  Often, seldom.  Gina, behave.  Barbarella, why do I picture Jane Fonda whenever I see your name?

This post has gone so far off topic that I could sing show tunes here and it would be appropriate.  How about this idea....if you dislike the people posting, stay off the post. (I think it was put to me...dont read it!)  If what they say means little to you and they arent worth your words...dont type the words.  

[Awake and Unafraid]

what?

[often]

You attacked me because I upset oatbucket...remember...you didn't even know who or what it was all about, but you still jumped in.  That was your first mistake.  I assume you read my message to you and to awake and to you two and flutter.  And I certainly hope you read my apology.

You jumped on surfgirl the other day when she made the comment that all meds will eventually lead to organ failure making far more of that statement than was warranted.

I NEVER made fun of anybody...nor did I EVER attack anyone.  You and me....you started it hon.  I was staying out of it until you went after me.  Your mistake.

[Ginasouthcarolina]

You are making no sence vienna's comment about my spelling was uncalled for...and i did NOT attack surfgirl the other day and how did i get p  is sy when she wasnt even talking to me?

"we are getting peaceful around here until you started your attacks"  ahahaha thats funny your getting peacfull cause everyone you guys like to make fun of left....And today i did not have NO REASON as you say i was attacked by vienna so i attacked back mabie you should direct your anger at her cause if she never made fun of my spelling then me and you would never be having this conversation.....Mabie if you got rid of her you would be peaceful but untill then..good luck..

And go ahead report me...for what? i was attacked for no reason we are not on here to make fun of peoples spelling so i had every right to report her...would if i really had a problem and she was making fun of me like that would that be right...i dont think so..

[often]

You are not the only one who knows how to report.  You have started several contentious conversations yourself.

I am not sure what the problem is.  Those who suffered from PVC/PAC/TACHY whatever....you all wanted us off the board because we wanted to discuss something OTHER than your issues.  Med Help was kind enough to set up a rhythm board, and you were all SOOOOOOOOOOOO pleased that you did not have to put up with "US" anymore.  Yet, you keep popping in here making derogatory remarks with no reason.  When we call you on it, you get p is sy....YOU attacked Surfgirl the other day on this thread for saying something that YOU did not want to hear.  Something that most people would NOT have panicked over.

Practice what you preach.  We were getting very peaceful over here until you started your attacks.

and as the disaster in Minneapolis today has proven, sometimes people DON'T have all the time in the world.

[Ginasouthcarolina]

Oh and i forgot to mention i reported you..and if you make fun of me again i will continue to report you until your off this sight...Dont play with me i have all the time in the world.

[Ginasouthcarolina]

And as far as All of you writting the same its referring to all of you who have joined together to make fun of people and put people down in stead of helping..

[Ginasouthcarolina]

Make fun of me all you want when i am typing fast im not worried about how my spelling is i figure people will get it....But unlike you i dont have to make fun of people to make myself feel better...how dare you insult me like that what are you 12 are we in 6th grade..Grow up....If you guys want to chat and make fun of people i suggest you start to use IM instead and let everyone here who cares about other people, help...i am sick of you ,your not even worth my words...Good thing your not from america cause if you lived here and had your attitude here you would be sqashed like a bug....

[viennaustria]

It is connected somewhat.

Agree whit what you said. :)

[Barbarella]

I/we LOVE Vienna.  Very beautiful and historic city.  The Austrian people also seem very nice and friendly.

Thought I mention that in case your name is connected with Vienna in Austria.

[viennaustria]

My name tells  half of my story. One day I might tell you the other half.:)
Had / have wonderful, smart German friends !:)

[viennaustria]

Grammar check…. Right… I might need it sometimes, but that is only like an accent.
  BUT... it doesn’t mean my critique has less value. People with  huge spelling problem ...and not only ginacarolina around here has one... should feel very damn , they were borne here in North America and went to school here. As I’ve heard spelling is a very important subject in elementary school.
