What Causes Severity In Extrasystoles?
Am a 48-yr-old female who's suffered from extrasystoles most of my life and supraventricular atrial tachycardia. I've been taking Atenolol for many years but as I get older the extrasystoles become more frequent, especially at certain times in my cycle. Could hormones be a factor?
