UPDATE!!!!!!
just got a call from te ER. My thyroid isn't right!!!!
TSH level is 15.7

Perhaps this is why im soooo dizzy!!! Now, dare I ask, can PVCs have anything to do with your thyroid?

Oh absolutely--PVCs can be caused by thyroid issues--it can cause all sorts of heart rhythm disruptions.

Because I've been so so dizzy. Doc said to take my BP when I felt the symptoms....dizzy, unsteady, etc. Hoping that maybe it was a pattern with low BP. But now, (as you can see from my last post) the ER called and said my TSH level is high and I need to be on thyroid meds.

thyroid and anemia can play hell on your heart skips?

I'm an expert at all things thyroid - unfortunately! I've been .01 all the way to 35! And it wreaked havoc on my body and mind. Just so you know there I now a huge link between thyroid issues and anxiety/mental issues. Palps are one huge symptom (usually the other direction though) but hypo (which you are) sully causes slower HR which I'm sure triggers PVCs too. I will give you more info. On way into therapist right now so message me any questions and I will help allnic an. Meds for it can help slot. Are you tired? Cold, hair falling it, bowel issues, gained or lost weight? All symptoms. I alwaysfelt
Lightheade when I had issues but mine was anxiety related as well. However with thyroid issues your body will release chemicals at different moments and you can have a rush of feelings/symptoms

Wow!!!!! Yes!!!!! I'm tired ALL the time!! Dizzy ALLllll the time. Hair loss, cold ... (always wearing a sweater or scarf) high anxiety, PVCs...weight issues, bowel issues..... It's like you hit the nail on the head.

Sounds like you may have found the cause of tons of your problems (including PVCs), and it is extremely easy to treat--one med does it all. Happy for you!!!

Yes sounds like you are hypothyroid. And yes easy fix. You take a synthetic form of what your body is lacking. I was opposite - hyperthyroid and. Had to take a chemical med - then I went too far over with high dose and ended up hypo at 35 and then adjusted to get back to normal. You can find a lot of info on thyroid. Hopefully it will cure your PVCs!! I really hope it does!

Thank you all for the posts, insights and advice. I'll update you soon when I get on the meds.
