A member asked:
If pvcs are not harmful why are they so scary?! my day is ruined when i have a strong bout or frequent ones. most terrifying feeling!
A doctor has provided 1 answer
PVCs: Pvcs can be scary because they put you in a situation when you're out of control. You seem helpless and disoriented as to what to do to control your heart rate. You need a work up done. Heart monitoring to start with, echocardiogram. All of that can be done after a referral to cardiologist.
