Ventricular bigeminy burning sensation

I get runs of ventricular bigeminy, much worse when tired or stressed. I also get a burning sensation on top of my left shoulder, sometimes the right shoulder too. I've noticed this burning sometimes starts or gets worse during a run of bigeminy (these runs are lasting a minute or so now, perhaps 10 times an hour).

Has anyone experienced similar? I can't help but thing the two are connected although I definitely get the burning pain sometimes with no bigeminy and other times the bigeminy with no burning? Doctor is saying 'anxiety' but this seems his answer to everything.

can't say I've ever had any burning sensations like you describe but yes on runs when I'm more tired and stress puts me over the edge...let me get angry or ticked off at something and it's like my heart explodes :P

hopefully someone else will know about this but have you had any tests that show the veins - maybe something clogged causing the burning or maybe its from a pinched nerve; spinal problem instead?

Just got the burning shoulder pain (Left one) but I've noticed that it hurts much more when I touch a certain part of my shoulder, in fact the weight of my shirt on the skin hurts at times. Im a bit reassured its probably not cardiac related.

This is maybe related to anxiety or nerves, which the VB does not help with one bit. I do find trying to keep calm can be difficult. Few of us probably realise how grouchy we are until we have something like ventricular bigeminy to remind us... Perhaps its a blessing in disguise?
