I have been experiencing ectopic or funny heartbeats, and recently they have greatly diminished. First I went to an MD and they gave me a ECG and listened to my heart. The MD told me that everything was okay, but they also have me some bunk advice (look back at my old thread to see).
Anyway, I attribute a decrease in ectopic beats to these:
1: Major decrease in stress, as school is finishing up for the winter
2: Major increase in fluid intake (I am constantly dehydrated)
3: Iron! I bought cast iron pans and started eating cereal fortified with iron.
It has been a week with very few ectopics, although they aren't all gone. I just wanted to share my experience of what has worked for me. I don't know if any of these actually worked, or it was a combination, or even if was a placebo effect, but so far so good. I'm crossing my fingers they won't rear their ugly head again. What have other people found?
