A member asked:

No.: Pvc's are often the sign of a healthy heart that is responding in real time to neurohormonal input. Everyone has these.

Not when infrequent: Low levels of pvcs have shown no increased risk of heart damage or dysfunction in otherwise healthy hearts, but a stress test is not a complete guarantee of heart health. Your specific situation may suggest a need for additional testing.
