Sorry for the double post but felt I should head this ectopics and not pals. Thanks for any replies:


Hello, hope you all had a nice Christmas.

So I am trying to handle the ectopics (not easy to live with). BUT...the other problem I have and keep trying to get across to my GP is that sometimes during the day...my heart beats really slow and I feel faint and spacey.

My GP had said this may be part of the problem (ectopics) yet it feels like a different problem. When it happens even standing up and walking around only gets my heart rate up to about 60bpm. I also get a weak feeling down one side and of course then get anxious and think STROKE. Does anyone else who has these ectopics also get the slow heart rate phases and dizzy spells?

My normal and comfortable heart rate is 72 - 88 beats per min at rest and 90 - 100 when active. Not 56 at freast and 60 when active...this makes me feel so weird
