40. Male. Exercise often. PVCs (on/off) for 20 yrs. Occasionally when on treadmill I get jarring, very brief (1 sec) center chest pain. Cardiac?
My EKG , holter (1900 pvc's) in 48 hours, cardiac us, nuclearmri/ct and stress test are all normal. I get on/off chest pain which radiates to my neck. Should i see a cardiologist? Family history.
Would normal EKGs, chest X-ray, 7 day event monitor, echo and treadmill stress test rule out the possibility of going into cardiac arrest from PVCs? I get them in runs of bigeminy, trigeminy, and SVT sometimes lately. Event monitor showed 2% burden?
Any reason why brief (1-2 seconds) chest pain simultaneous with a PVC only happens during exercise, not at rest? Does this suggest a cardiac problem?
Quick chest pains (1 second) w/PVCs dangerous/indicate cardiac problem? Had several episodes during 1 hours of tennis. Never short of breath though.
