A member asked:
Had pacs off and on for 8 years, mostly went away for almost 2 years while we was on antidepressant. got off of it 6 months ago, pacs are back. think antidepressant was keeping them away by keeping me mellowed out and less stressed ?

Were you taking antidepressant for depression or anxiety/panic disorder? If you taking for the latter conditions, probably there is some relationship between PAC and the efficacy of this drug. In that case, have you been nervous or anxious recently?

Cardio doesn't think my palps/pacs/pvcs are related to my mild MR, he thinks stress. So it's prob just a coincidence that I have both? Extra beats go away for weeks then come back, if it was the MR causing them then it prob wouldn't go away right?
