A member asked:
I have both premature ventricular contraction and mitral valve prolapse, so am i at an increased risk for something bad?

Probably not but...: The devil is always in the details. Both pvcs and mvp have a broad range of severities from insignificant to more serious. Obviously you have a physician who is working with you for you to have these diagnoses - please ask him/her this very question. That person will have all the facts that relate to your exact situation.

Possibly: At risk for cardiac arrhythmias (irregular heartbeats), such as atrial fibrillation or atrial flutter, with rapid ventricular rate, which could lead to ventricular tachycardia or ventricular fibrillation, which can be fatal.
