Hi.Does anyone experienced some kind of relation between fasciculations and abnormal heart beats, like extra-systoli or PVC?Do you think our nerves, capable of doing this kind of play with our muscles, could affect the heartbeats or the heart's nerve conduction?I'm asking this because I tend to feel very strong extra-systoli (or PVC, I think), from time to time. It's scary, you feel like if your heart would stop and a quick but strong pain with it. I had already asked myself if there could be a relation. But I, kind of, learned to live with that, like with BFS.Today, however, I was really frightened: after a brief (and not too tough) walk on the mountain, when going down (fortunately my wife was driving), I felt, not one, but a series of extra-systoli which seemed not to stop and gave me a feeling of weight and discomfort in the chest; it took some 10 seconds, it stopped for a while leaving me with the tightness in the chest and then it came back. I was really frightened, and I really had the feeling of going to die. I was so sure of death that I was at the same time scared and calm, like if I probably just had to say farewell to my wife and daughter. I never felt that before. My wife was driving like a crazy down the mountain, where there's a town with a (good) hospital, but I decided to call our equivalent to 911, she stopped, and they took me to the hospital. After having made all the tests, my heart was apparently ok, with no signs of anything abnormal. And I came back home.Anyway, just to say that, if there's no apparent cause for this scary stuff, maybe it could have a relation with BFS. But how? How can it affect the heart dangerously?Replies welcome!Carlos
