I'm new :)

Hi, I've just joined. I've had SVT in the past (had an ablation almost 2 years ago), and currently have POTS/IST with occasional atrial flutter. I have lost 20kg and this seems to have helped a fair amount. I also have IBS and the symptoms are much worse if I deviate from my low FODMAP diet. I also have PTSD which means that any stress sets off all of these symptoms. Which is fun! :-/ 

It'll be great getting to know everyone. Ive started counselling for my heart issues and have been told I need a community and this seems like a nice one smile

I hope everyone had a happy easter xxx

I have afib, one bout with NSVT and a pacemaker. I get lots of Pvc s and Pacs and have anxiety disorder. Sounds like your stuff some!! But, hang in there!! We can cope with this! God bless! There is another group on Facebook for benign pvcs and pacs too which is great. Very helpful. Check it out! Hugs, Mabel
