For best evaluation, care&follow-up, you should be under the care of a cardiology electrophysiologist. In this way you'll know if your ventricular irritability is serious or requires treatment. Reassurance from being cared for by an expert will give you peace of mind.

My cardiologist doesnt want me to take creatine anymore because it can boost the ATP production which can increase the energy expenditure by the heart. I have PACs and PVCs and pericarditis and myocarditis twice. Wouldnt that be beneficial for me?
Would tachycardia, myocarditis & pericarditis show on EKG or CT scan? I did both & CT was perfect, as for my ekg, they said my heart was beating a little fast (127 bmp, some from anxiety, but not all) but the rhythm was perfect. Should I be worried?
Are PVC'S dangerous? Had skipped/extra beats for 14 years. Finally caught them on ecg lastnight. Dr said not to panic. But reading online says can lead to cardiac arrest and heart failure etc. Freaking out so bad?
Would normal EKGs, chest X-ray, 7 day event monitor, echo and treadmill stress test rule out worried for cardiac arrest or heart failure? Have PVCs in runs of bigeminy, trigeminy, and SVT sometimes lately. 2% burden?
