Hi. This is helpful information- I see that it was posted in 2018 so I hope that you see my comment
I have been recently diagnosed with PVC. I have no doctor as he passed away and we are in a health care crisis in Nova Scotia so no doctor yet. I went to a walk in clinic to get the referral for the ECG. I have been concerned about getting a Covid bivalent booster because of the possible affect on the heart, Should I be worried? I have my booster scheduled for next week.

Hi Lisa @lisa12, I've had occassional PVCs. I have hypertension and take blood pressure medications. Here's a video you might find helpful:

Do you have any symptoms from the PVCs? Can you tell when they occur?
