Hi,
I have been diagnosed with PVC's that are totally benign, wore a holter monitor? for 1 month and cardio said don't worry about a thing. Set off by chocolate, caffeine and alcohol, perhaps stress. Had them strongly about 6 mo. ago and they subsided.
Anyway, they are back a bit, but the rhythm feels different, closer together. Used to be every 6-8-10 beats, now is a rhythm like 1, 3, 1, 1, 1, 5, 3, for a while then more spaced out. Still each episode is about 20 min. max. Does anyone have experience with rhythm changing? And people with benign PVC's, how often does cardio check or do another holter monitor recording over a month?
I feel fine, just noticing the rhythm seems closer together. Will have reg. cardio appt. in a few months, so not really worried, but wonder if I should be?
Thanks, Betsy
