Female 31, constant PVCs. What can I personally do to help myself?

My PVC's kicked back up again to the tune of about 10-12 per minute. I tried three things at once and they have essentially stopped or at least backed off where I do not have the anxiety anymore that my heart is just going to stop. I started adding electrolytes to my water twice a day (while avoiding all carbonated beverages and sugary beverages), I started taking Magnesium Glycinate, and I started exercising 40-50 minutes a day with heart rate between 120 and 135 at peak (I am 63 y.o. male) We shall see how long this lasts!

After discussing with my EP I do almost exactly what you are doing.
I was put on a medication that starts with a M and you take every 8 hours. Really reduced PVCs and stopped all tachycardia.
I recently had an episode with my ICD/Pacemaker and EP things electrolytes got off. I started drinking no sugar gatorade but notice it has sucrolose. I found an electrolyte packet on Amazon and will start using that in my water.
