I dont get it..

I was sick for the 3 days with the stomach flu and had 0 PVCs i could feel, now today 1 hits me like a bullet, im no longer scared of the big thump or thud ones, the one im scared of feels like my heart is beating uselessly for 1-3 seconds and it gives me a huge sensation by my heart which i don't believe is adrenaline because it does not make my heart race after. what the hell is this?? feels like tightness when it happens also, is it just a PAC or PVC? i was at the ER yesterday but because my stomach was on fire, im starting to become scared of the ER, i get there and started hyperventilating with a BP of 158/89 and blood perfusion of 116 which im still trying to figure it out, all i no is it was blinking in red right below my BP.

I'm sorry. I have no idea what blood perfusion is but I'm sure since you were panicky your BP was high and that too. Did they say anything? I don't have much advice since I'm new to all of this but just wanted to let you know I was sorry and here If you need to vent!

Good lord, you can stop with the medical tests already. You are okay, and obsessing at this point. I would be beyond surprised if there is anything wrong with you. The only thing you're doing is getting a huge medical file, and at age 23 or so, is that really a good idea? If you have to get private insurance in the future, forget it, with all the ER visits, as MIB would have all your data. Save the ER visits for something serious. Seriously, dude. You are not seriously ill--it is 99.9% likely due to stress and anxiety, and that needs to be treated. I have been in your boat many times, so that is why I can talk tough love--one has to face the fact that life goes on and there are other things in life than worrying about your health. Try and treat the anxiety, as that is so obviously your main problem.

Anxiety or turmoil depression sadness etc causes my stomach to be super upset. If they the doctors haven't found out anything you've got to calm down and get rid of stress. The reason why u probably didn't have any palpitations during the flu when you more than likely should have since u had fever was probably cause you weren't thinking about ur chest or heart because everything else was sore and you were too busy puking. So... Try to not think about ur heart beats and when they come on kinda funny try try try ur hardest to dismiss them.

Well for once it was a good thing i went. It wasnt the stomach flu. I actually have an ulcer and it fing burns. I didnt go to the er for my heart, i went for the burning pain in my stomach. Now i get antibiotics, and im stuck eating broth. But the first 3pvc days of this pain was heaven without the palpitations. These anxiety books are helping as im not rushing to the er for my palps. When i get one i will vent on here now.

Well,please feel free to vent. Ulcers are very correlated with stress, and uncomplicated ones are easy to treat. Glad they found out that you have it, as it is easier to treat before it gets large and nasty. H pylori are very easy bacteria to kill off. Feel better, and work on the anxiety.

I will. I asked them to test for h pylori and it was neg. My mom told me she used to get ulcers from stress. I didnt know you can get them like that. But yea instead of going into a full blown panic i just hyperventilate for 10-20the minutes with a normal heart rate. Im getting used to how to calm sown when i feel panic coming on

Btw dr461 how would you kill off h pylori if you have it?

I was tested for H-Pylori, it was negative, but, I still have constant tummy pains after I eat. I have tried all the crap out there like Prilosec, etc, it makes me worse and cause more "skips" Dang.

To kill off H-Pylori, you would need to take a product called "Mastic Gum" this works better than any anti-biotic. Here is a link posted by the Bastry College, it is where my doctor teaches and you can trust what they say.

Hope this helps.
