My wife is 58 this month and has had heart palpitations since she was a kid, and has never taken any meds at all for it.

I have them sometimes from too much or too little potassium..................

I was having cataract surgery in 2017. For some reasons, my palpitations were really going strong that day, and I worried they would not do the surgery. After they hooked me up, the anesthesiologist said “Hmm, I’m seeing a lot of extra heartbeats here”. I explained to her that it was a condition I was being treated for, and that it was acting up that day. I did follow up with an echocardiogram a month later and wore a holter monitor for a week. Doctors still said “nothing to see here”.

I have had A-fib all my life. Am now 74 years old. The wanted to kill me, then revive me to see if my heart would restart with a constant beat. I said NO WAY! I am fine.
