Hello All,
I hope you are well.
I wanted to ask your opinion on what to do with I guess what I call SVT and STRONG heart beats?
I am five years post surgery for Aneurysm and aortic valve replacement at cedars with Dr Raissi.
First off I feel just fine, a little more stress than usual but generally ok.
I am finding that my "strong heart beats" are becoming more and more apparent to me. In the evening I can feel them but I really have to be quiet and calm, they happen and are most apparent when I go to bed and lie down and either side, usually my back is the safest bet. I guess eating too much also causes the rapid and strong heart beats for me, I wonder if these would be considered PVC'S? They are not affecting my sleep just a little cumbersome as they seem to be getting stronger. My pulse is still fine and I do not seem to be experiencing any of the old RAPID tachycardia's since surgery and on the medication (100mg atenolol at night). Occasionally I get a weird feeling coming from inside almost like a HOLLOW feeling and then for 3-5 seconds its like a quake inside. I know its about to happen but again it is so short and so rare (maybe once every 6-8weeks) that I have not concerned myself. I feel like a shake from inside. I can now feel these strong beats in the daytime as well while sitting on the desk typing, again not uncomfortable or anything just there and I feel like they should not be. When I run or hike and push myself, when I stop if I have gone really hard my heart takes a while to relax and sometimes I feel like I am shaking, I am not sure if this makes sense to you guys?
Just before my surgery (6 months prior) I did an electro physiology study and at that time they diagnosed me with a PSEUDO WPW (WOLF PARKINSON WHITE). Dr Noel Boyle said he thought he could do ablation to rid me of the SVT but did not think it was clear enough what I actually had and did not want to chance it at the time. Well 6 months later I found an aneursym and the rest is history.
Now that that part is over and my heart is close to normal is this an option for me? Ablation? Just trying see if I can get back to somewhat normal.
Maybe do a halter study or a bunch of new tests to see where this is all coming from? Where do I start? I have read alot of you doing the ablation and would like more feedback on this experience as well.
I am 5.9- 160lbs medium frame
Do you get alot of that hear beats in your stomachs? I can see mine alot.
Does anyone feel like me?
thx cory.
Thank you
