A member asked:

I have been diagnosed with pvcs. lately they feel very different and painful, then my chest hurts for a while after the painful ones. is this concern?

Yes.: Symptomatic pvc's are potentially dangerous. Some types of pvcs are more dangerous than others. You definitely should discuss this with your cardiologist.
