Have you tried something as simple as a low dose beta blocker?

A few years back I was having trouble with frequent PAC and PVC, and a series of doctors simply shrugged them off. Nobody even used a term like "burden rate" to me. Holter monitor analysis simply ignored them. Visit to hospital for another reason, hooked to the electrodes, was lighting up the PAC and PVC like a Christmas tree, nobody cared.

But, after a couple of years, some combination of diet, beta blockers, time and luck, and the problem seems to have been reduced by 98% or so. So were the doctors right to shrug it off? I doubt it.

@carbcounter
My experience is very similar. I was just prescribed a mild beta blocker and hope it reduces my PVC burden like it did for you.
