PVCs with weakness and dizziness Posted: 02-09-08 23:26pm
I had a duel cabg 12/04, followed by MI,
both arteries clogged and repeat both
CABG. develop arritymia, and area of heart
not dead but not contracting properly,
mild leaks in mitral an atria valves. On
aspirin, plavix, altace, corig, cumadium,
and 80mg daily Lipitor. Have had period
episodes of PVC's off and on for two
years. Had ICD defibulator/pacemaker
implanted 9/06. I am now experiencing a
pvc every three or four beats, feeling
weak, dizzy, can actually feel pvcs and
when lying down hear them on the pillow.
Prior to my first CABG was told in cath
lab that my heart was in really great
shape for a 64 year old man, that it would
last another 50 years.
Please help!

Premature ventricular contractions (or
skipped heart beat / palpitation) may be
prevented by stopping caffeine. Do you
drink any of it?
Also how often do you exercise?

alcohol too.. that will give you heart
palpitations... not the day you are
drinking by more often the day after.
