Should be fine: Since you went through a significant procedure, you should ask your cardiologist. The pvcs likely do dot represent a big risk. Perhaps they will get better. If not, they can be left alone, treated with mess or ablated. In the end you went through this so you could have a normal life. I'd say you should do what you can to get back to it.
