A member asked:
I have had skipped/extra beats for 14 years. they get bad then they are calm and repeat. just now they have been bad for a few weeks or more. very strong. sometimes every 4-5 beats. sometimes 10 beats. sometimes more. pvc's - will they kill me?

Usually intermittent PVCs are not a big problem, but if you are noticing a change in your symptoms, it is reasonable to be a valuated by your primary care doctor. You may need a 24 hour Holter monitor or an evaluation by a cardiologist, or both. Good luck.

Been having bad PVC episodes for over a year now, episodes last anywhere from 30 minutes to 4-5 hours. Seems like every 3rd or 4th beat is a PVC during these episodes. Never had PVCs before, they started 5 days after my second dose in June 2021?
