Irregular heartbeats :(

[carli]

Hello all, i had a 24hr heart test done last week and it shows irregular beats :( dr wants to see me on weds, im so upset. Does anyone know what this means? Thankyou. x

It could just be PVC's, when I have them my pulse is very irregular. Try not to worry, the heart does all sorts of irregularities that are harmless. Let us know how you get on. x

Thankyou. x

Same as prev poster I would imagine you have pvc's otherwise known as ectopic heartbeats that are almost always harmless but very unpleasant and your Dr will probably want to explain and reassure you.

Thankyou xx

I also have this and its just a heart murmur and is completely harmless. Its very common, some people don't even realise they have one until later on in life. I didn't realise until I was 25. I'd always suffered from little flutters but tried to ignore it. If you listen to my heart beat it sounds really strange - all over the place buts its fine, I'm just a little different :) xx

I'm no expert but I think if you have irregular beats (which is fairly common) they just put you on beta blockers to even out the beats? Don't think it's a sign of serious heart problems xx
