Adrenal gland issue & PVCs?

Posted , 3 users are following.

I'm dealing with an issue with my adrenal glands, where whenever I have a sudden rush of adrenaline, for any purpose, I feel a quick sharp pain in my upper abdomen area (where adrenal glands are located) and often begin to have pvcs & anxiety symptoms following it.

Sometimes even just THINKING about something that causes adrenaline can cause these symptoms.

Does anybody know what this is?? This adrenal issue is the main cause of me dealing with pvcs and I want to get to the bottom of it.

    Hi Mick, it must be awful. I'm unable to help with your pvc and adrenaline rush problems, but can help in some way. Mick, your adrenal glands sit just above each kidney, located just above the small of your back. Have you spoken to your doctor?

      I'm sure that's very reassuring for you. I don't know if you are taking any medication for your pvc problem and what heart tests you have had done, so please be careful. I've been struggling myself and a while ago, I commented on taking Gaviscon, when they start and how it helped. I had researched extensively .... never giving up, and came across a thread in Australia. This person that didn't have any acid reflux (I don't - no stomach problems that I am aware of), said it relieved his pvc. I finally tried it myself and have had substantial relief. I'm trialing myself to see if it just gives relief - that I don't feel these dreadful beats, but is still missing the beats when I take my pulse. I've just had to have a dose of 20 ml, because they just won't go away. I just want them to stop forever!

      Are you missing beats as well?

      I noticed that no-one had replied and I know what it's like when no one replies. I hope I am helping in some way.

      I'm not taking any other medication. I was on Bisoprolol for years, but now don't take it. My reply has become disjointed and I'm sorry, but it's because I struggle when my heart is playing me up.

      Here are the links of the research I did .... you may find it interesting/helpful. Please remember Mike, I am not a doctor. I am merely passing on what I have found.
