Hi all,
I have AVNRT and am awaiting a second ablation.
But in the last few months I get a lot of flutters. These seem to be after I eat and then I get a lot of gas and burping. My heart does that lull thing. Just feels like a flutter.
I think it is aggitated from the gas ect.
Just wondered if anyone has experienced this. I am sure it has nothing to do with the SVT.
I have been told that magnesium is good for that, and was wondering if anyone has had any experience with magnesium

i still think that the valsalva nerve has something to do with it.
i had issues after I got severe food poisoning that last d for months. My abdomen would bloat and then my heart would go crazy ! That nerve controls a lot of the heart.

I agrre with you about the valsalva nerve, but try getting a doctor here to agree with that........

Magnesium is TREMENDOUSLY helpful to me. I get a ton of PVCs if I don't take it. I take a magnesium supplement every night. I actually saw a naturopath who said I didn't need to take it (she didn't say it was bad for me, but she said she thought it wasn't necessary), so I stopped taking it. About a week later, I had an SVT episode. I wouldn't go as far as to say that magnesium directly helps SVT, but I do know it will decrease PVCs, and PVCs can start up an SVT. It is good for the heart even if you don't have SVT, so I would keep taking it

Hi there,
I just bought canprev magnesium bis-glycinate 200mg gentle. Heard it was better for the stomach as I have stomach issues.
How do you know what the difference is between PCV's and PAC's? and how people know which they have?

The only way to know for sure would be to be connected to an EKG when one happened - your doctor can read it and determine which one it is.
A PAC occurs in the atria, and for that reason, my understanding is that it is typically not felt. A PVC is in the ventricles, and it's a much more noticeable "hard beat" or skipped beat feeling.

PAC's and PVC's are very common and can sometimes be felt and sometimes not. They are not serious.

They feel pretty much the same to me. The only difference is a PVC usually (but not always) has a pause after the premature beat, while a PAC usually (but not always) doesn't... But I bought a Kardia heart monitor so I can check at home and tell which is which, they're pretty obvious on an ECG as a PAC looks like a normal heartbeat but early (as that's what it is) whereas a PVC looks distinctly odd.

does that make sense?
