A member asked:

Can surge of blood following a pvc cause a stark but extremely brief center of chest pain? occurs when i run sometimes. never at rest or on bike rides

A doctor has provided 1 answer

No: Post-extrasystolic potentiation may be perceived as a palpitation but is not painful.

A member asked:

What's the clinical significance of having a normal EKG and echocardiogram at rest but seeing PVCs and PACs during a stress test? Do PVCs and PACs indicate a myocardial injury? Blood test is also normal. What other tests should be ordered?
