Excessive PVCS and exercise concerns

I would not exercise, but that's just me. Walking, even slightly briskly once warmed up, will probably be best, but heavy lifting, sprints, hill and stair climbing as part of a fitness regimen, indoor treadmills....nope, not for me. Even an electrophysiologist might suggest that you not be overly concerned at this point, but you really need to ask one. A second opinion, IOW.

Thank you for the comments. I was surprised to be told the level of the PVCS, the need for a referral ASAP to specialist but the cardiologist didn't think it was a concern to exercise. Also, had an episode two weeks ago that resembled a stroke (code blue to ED in middle of night) and specialist said it wasn't connected to heart issue. (Neurologist order MRI to rule out TIA) Will wait to talk to electro doc but am confused with mixed messages. PVCS are constant not sporadic. Told it is as if I am running a constant marathon. Trying not to stress about any of this but concerned exercising could make this worse.
