Ekg showed i had 1 pac and 1 pvc but all else normal. is this ok?

OK: 1 pac and 1 PVC are ok. But if those are more frequent and you are symptomatic with skipped beats then you have to get 24 hour holter monitor to measure PVC burden. If PVC burden is > 10% of your total heart beats in 24 hours that could cause heart failure in long run. Then you need medical therapy to suppress pvcs.
