I sometimes have as many as 16 per minute. It doesn’t help when the Dr. blows it off as harmless-it doesn’t feel harmless as you well know. Hang in there!

@rebaheizer , When my act up I can have one about every 5 beats. When not acting up they are usually around 1 every 20 beats. I have been told stress, what you eat, electrolytes, supplements, can all affect your PVCs so I try to be careful with them.
You will see a lot of recommendations to see a EP. I echo that. They can do a holter monitor check and get a real look at where they are coming from and how many. From that they can recommend ablation, medications, supplements.
And yes even supplements can help. Magnesium is one of them but please do not rely on what I was told to take magnesium make sure your PCP and hopefully your EP recommends it.
