A holter moniter is like a small portable EKG that records your heart over a 24 or so period.
It hooks up with the pads and is about 2" x 4". It'll record anything unusual so your doc can see whats going on! Biggest complaint is having to come back the next day to get it taken off.
Your meds are typical. Sounds like they suspect a little heart failure from the MI.
When you take these meds there is a action/ reaction problem. The first thing I noticed is no "PRIL" ie. Ace Inhibitor. Then I read on an see you stopped it. That's not good, yes it's primary job is to lower BP but it also has other effects on the arteries around the heart. They can be constricting and your arm pressure will look fine and the heart isn't getting enough oxygen from the blood causing it to weaken it's stroke combine that with the coreg which is a beta blocker which weakens the stroke and slows the heart. the body sense this and throws an extra amount of electrical pulse causing the ventrical to snap hard and then dosen't release in time for the next stroke and you got a PVC. With the meds your taking you really need a Ace Inhibitor added or put back in the mix.
Forget the Lescol xl and stick with your other Supps it sounds like your covered there.
On the Pauling therapy I would start with Heart Tech 2 scoops a day and once everything is feeling pretty good you can shoot for Bowel Tolerance as Owen reccomends here.
Hope this Helps.
