Strange PVC Runs?

[valtiel]

Hello,

I'm 19 years old, really looking for some answers. I went to my doctor a couple weeks ago complaining of palpitations. They gave me a holter and after going to the cardio, I was diagnosed with benign PVCs. I got an echocardiogram to rule out physical problems, and it all came back negative, (good to know!)
Recently though, I've been getting this feeling when I'm sitting. It's not the average skip, but feels like a hard pound, and rush of blood to the head. Today I was able to feel my pulse, and it felt like the normal pause, but followed with what felt like a fast heart beat, then another pause, then normal. I don't know if this is a normal PVC, a PVC couplet, or something else. It seriously scared the heck out of me though. I called my cardiologist, and he said if it worsens to call him Monday for another holter. Do you think this is anything to be concerned about in a structurally normal heart?

i think me and you are in the same boat. im 19 with PVCs with normally structured heart. ive had it for about 6 years now (Started when i was 13/14 years old) its gotten worse over time and my heart has gone through periods of strange things that it does to my body. first it was just the palpitations and the worry, later i would get a strange pressure on my head, a little later after i would eat i would feel like im going to pass out, then it was extreme chest tightness to where i could hardly breathe. the tightness is still there but now im getting random muscle spasms. i think that your issue is probably something that is temporary and later it will be something else. i know this post was long ago but i would like to know how youre doing since we are both so young with the same problem i believe.

Hi,

I am interested to know what you find out from your cardiologists.  Your beats and rush to  the head sounds similiar to what I feel.

Thanks,

From what you have said I think you should be alright until Monday, day after tomorrow.

Any change in how you feel that is troubling is a change that can benefit from a discussion with your doctor, especially true given you have a related examination history.
