Vagus Nerve, Heart Palpitations (PAC's/PVC's), & Panic Disorder

I'm trying to learn more about the connection between the vagus nerve, heart palpitations, & panic attacks. Can the Vagus Nerve, Heart Palpitations, & Panic Attacks all be connected?

If anyone has any tips on preventing heart palpitations (pac's/pvc's) or panic disorder please let me know!!

My doctor told me its completely normal to have palpatations and everyone gets them - some people are more aware of their palpatations than others - he also told me that the average amount of palpatations is 4 every hour. Although this may be refreshing to hear, some palpatations are abnormal and should be checked by a doctor. If your palpatations bother you, you should try regular excercise, drinking plenty of water, eating healthily, taking deep breaths, meditation and quit smoking and coffee.

@googlevideosrule Yep, I do the regular exercise now, drink plenty of water, try to eat healthier, and I don't smoke. Wish they'd go away.

Do you take any stimulant meds? when i used to mess with adderall (abuse), my heart rate would fly! so even if you gotta prescription for it.... look into it a little more... Lookin into all of the meds your doctor has given you.. AND DO NOT try the caortid artery massage by yourself... You can stop your hearbeat completely and kill yourself...

@Abbusko No, I'm only on a beta-blocker, Atenolol. I don't even take over the counter meds.

i also suffer from anxiety .but then started having acid reflux and then heart pvc,s i also thought my problem was connected to the vagus nerve but recently i made the doctor test me for h pylori and was found positive i took the medecation and feel like that might have been the whole problem, h pylori is a stomach virus the doctors dont like tell you about.im hoping this helps alot of people.

Wow, this is crazy! I thought I was nuts with the PVC and everytime I moved my neck down I would get PVC, wow! I will have to look into this, I'll keep you posted on what I find out. Thanks for the information, I actually have a 7 day heart monitor just got it today. My stupid pacemaker is not picking up on my PVC and my daughter was telling me I make no sense what I'm describing to him. After the echo the saw the stupid PVC and now they believe me. I'm so freaking upset about him not believing

@hope4anxiety How long have ya been on the atenolol. I took 25 mg for my anxiety and and that is when I actually started with the pvc's. these types of drugs can worsen heart palps

hi ! i been having palpatations , lightheaded , for years the thing that makes me have panic attacks is when i over eat . i have high blood pressure and i to take atenolon man this sucks ! and the doctor told me tha it maybe the vagus nerve that it runs right on ur esophogus and my esophogus might b real irritated from acid reflux

[RichardBri]

Search Dr John Chia, his research focuses on the vagus nerve becoming infected and causing it to become dysfunctional. It then causes all the symptoms you are describing.....

Hi, Im a 34 year old fit female, slim and in perfect health, perfect echo & structure of heart, perfect blood test etc .. I had acid reflux/ gastritis from eating lots of hot chillies 8 months ago. At the time I had no idea what acid reflux was I was just in alot of pain. A day after I was in a hot shower and I came out I went into AF and had to go to hospital & was converted by a magnesium drip. I had acid reflux again after eating lots of hot chillies and tabasco sauce a few weeks ago.
