Yesterday I had a very stressful day I am working a full time, high pressure sales jobs making 100 dials on Canada's Wall st, Bay st and work like a dog that's why i'm the top closer Also growing 2 business have had some drama and personal things that were emotionally draining yesterday. All is good now. Those obstacles, I climbed and in smooth skies now. Yesterday I was experiencing turbulence, had also slept so so and was deyhdraded and had a very caffeinated starbucks drink. I've had anxiety and panic episodes for about 1 year now. They are getting better as I'm taking care of myself, drinking water more, I quit drinking booze, quit vaping sleeping better, meditating, decompressing, using essential oils, practicing mindfulness and my job, businesses keep me focused on them Yesterday I was very emotional though I noticed that in the evening as I would cough hard, breath deeply hard like inhale it would almost like create an irritating feeling in mid chest and then my hard would pause, then hard beat followed by several fast premature contractions I felt panicky and a bit light headed after this. I guess because I became more anxious so this might have caused hyperventilation I had a few of these episodes like either I would breath in deeply and hard and then when exhale, my hard would delay, then hard beat then a small arrythmia or series of several premature contractions Even when I would clearn my throat. It would trigger this event. I had this happen once last year. I think it's because when you do that, you're irritating vagus nerve, which might be irritated to gas bubbles in the esophagus due to stress, anxiety and this triggers these micro arrythmia episodes upon a mechanical movement like inhalation or clearing the throat Then all of a sudden in the mid of night, I was normal. Just like that. I could clear my throat as hard as I wanted, breath in like I'm breathing in a big hot air balloon and nothing. Normal. What just happened, what was all that about? stress, the vagus nerve, gas bubbles or what? The caffeine? Thanks
Need help with one last thing pls. Anyone ever get PVCs after coughing or cleaing their throat hard?
Hey guy, any or all kinds of stress can associate with these arrhythmias.
Something that can help is getting some regular, moderate exercise, helps to de-stress you, but also gives the heart rhythm an alternate path to stability.
