Question about beats

So I'm having a rough day today since ovulating and was thinking that maybe my funky 3 beaters could just be a normal beat followed by an early then normal? Does this make since? Because it sometimes feels like an extra beat stuck in between my two regular ones? I'm wondering if this is how it's always been for me and suddenly I'm just really aware of how they are coming? I was also wondering if anyone catches themselves holding their breath? I seem to hold my breath constantly but only when I'm in pain. I get horrible ovulation pains. So wondering if this is maybe why I get more palps during this time?

I hold my breath a lot, without even realizing it.

You are probably getting the skips due to the ovulation, I understand that is pretty common.

Do you get your "skips" on the inhale of your breath-holding, Katie? If so, I'm thinking it's not actually PVCs or PACs at all.

Jeff, I just read your post, mine usually come when I take a deep breath, not when I release it, but, let me take in a deep one, bingo, there they come, just like bending down.

Vagus nerve.

That'll be $150.

And I don't accept insurance.

Now go to sleep.

Right after you scratch out that check.

Ohh and some of us have back issues so make sure to send out a listing of the closest hotels since we won't be able to do blow out mattresses. Itll be a convention.
