I am a male , in my fifties and i am experiencing a sudden onset of PVCS since 5 weeks. It started out of the blue and instantly I had a 10% burden a day. After a week i got an echocardiogram and EKG. My Echo was good. Heart was fine and EKG showed indeed around 10-12% pvc on the EKG strip. All unifocal,
Cardiologist wasn’t worried.
I then got covid and for a week i was sick and did not have much pvcs due to fever and higher heart rate,
Now for the past two weeks my pvcs are increasing further. When i sit for a while or lay in bed to rest then i could easily get into a 20-25% burden. As soon as i start walking or moving in the house the PVCS become way less frequent. Maybe 1 or 2 a minute most..As soon as i then sit down again within a few minutes it is all back to 15-20% easily…
I do feel it has something to do with my stomach or esophagus as well.. i also have a hiatus hernia.
Most weird thing is that i can feel my skipped beats a bit right of my stomach pit (solar plexus) just below my right rib cage., it can go on for hours on that spot and then suddenly they disappear there and move to way left…just under my left nipple or even more to the left??
I am afraid that the amount will hurt me or my heart?
Why isnt my GP and cardiologist worried. I mean …come on 20-25% in rest is a lot!
Any help and input appreciated
