RE: PVCs and centrals?
I have complex (very) Apnea and PVCs, among other things. When my ASV for the complex Apnea was on the right track, I found the PVCs were lessened. However, since ASV and other Apnea treatments aren't on track right now, and PVC palpitations were still present, my PCP PA has increased my blood pressure med, Diltiazem (cardizem) a calcium channel blocker. My blood pressure and PVCs are behaving right now. Diltiazem was prescribed by my cardiac doc at 1 30 mg twice a day, but my PA increased it 3x up to 90 mg twice a day.
