Hey Lisa- Obviously the EKG picked up those palpitations you reported the other day. I'm still sure that your heart is healthy and these are benign PVCs.

Maybe it IS the Diovan after all!

Let us know what cardiologist says/does.

Following you like a hawk, as always,

Hi Zuzu,

I got the monitor on right now and I have to keep track of the palps and when they occur and write them in a log report she gave me. I go back tomorrow to give it back to them so they can send it out to be scanned for results. I have been looking into that magnesium we spoke about the other day and after work I will go to my helath food store to pick up these crystals called Natural Calm Magnesium and CO-Q10. I will not take them until tomorrow because I want to see what the monitor reads for sure without it. I read up on it and it sounds like a good healthy cure for palpitations..Thanks for looking out for me..Love, Lisa

Hi Lisa-
I read your message in the thread I posted re: the new hypertension guidelines where you added that you had tried the Natural Calm and were already having less palpitations. Great news!

What were the holtor monitor results or is it too soon to ask?

later...
