Extra Heart Beats: According to your description it seems thatyou are definately having extra heart beats but I am not sure how can you tell that these are PVC's or PAC's with short burst of SVT since Vtach usually does not have HR of 200 BPM. You definately needs further testing which should include a Holter monitor,Poss. A event monitor if HM is negative,A 2 D Echo and eventually a stress test and even a full EPS.
