Specializes in Surgery

Heart beat: You may be experiencing pvcs or premature ventricular beats often related to caffeine or other causes. These are fairly common, however it is impossible to know without a complete history and physical examination . Please see you physician asap and if your condition worsens, seek immediate medical attention.
