Complete cardio work up normal results. occasional pvc/pac. r they dangerous? they feel strong sometimes and i get so scared? usually when relaxing.

PVC/PAC: If the heart is otherwise normal, PVCs and PACs are generally benign and of no risk. A normal exam, ecg, echo and stress test and perhaps a holter monitor would constitute a pretty complete work up.
