Hey all.. I went on vacation for a week. I was really doing well, but I started to get these like irregular heart beats, I felt like my heart was flipping over and over. I went to the emergency room.. They said It was PVC's and that they wouldn't hurt me,, I continued to have them on and off all week. Really disturbing to me.. I phoned my Dr .. Before I had left I had a stress test and echo done. the Echo showed just very trace Mitro valve prolapse..

I know this isn't really about DP , But I was wondering if anyone else has had experience with this, and what I can't figure is if your heart isn't beating normally how can they not be concerned.

Forgive me if this isn't an appropriate topic, but I thought that maybe some have had this and could help me.

Ask your doctor or someone who knows about your specific case for a *technical explanation* of exactly why it should be of no concern to you. Explain why you want it. Get it in writing if you can, or ask for a referral to a site with accurate information about it on the Internet. Go there and then print the information and keep it handy so you can read it whenever you become concerned.

Whispers to you privately: Don't look for laymen to explain medical issues -- get the very people who reassure you to give you a complete and technical response that satisfies you.
