  • I wish ya'll would let us hear the "beep" of the monitor, it would be very helpful. But the music is soothing and I know it's just the look of the ECG that we should be concerned with. Thanks for posting!

  • I have PVCs. Mostly I get them from cold weather or sitting down too long. Sometimes laying down. Doctor told me they were benign and did not want to put me on medication. They still can be uncomfortable because of the pumpish skip beat feeling.

  • PVCS can only be treated with lidocane.

  • i have my ECG result, and i have PVC, my doctor just give me a B-complex vitamins, is the b -complex will help to bring back my normal heartbeat.,any help

  • @CreedChrist I was diagnosed with pvcs about 21/2 months ago and my cardiologist put me on a medication called Bystolic. A 10mil. dose(beta blocker) once a day and it has done wonders!!!!!!!!!!!! It was one of two options he gave me, the other option was to do nothing and just live with it. I opted for the medication because I also was very uncomfortable with the feeling of the "pumpish skip" as you described it.

  • @kestoelvis Heart rate is actually pretty normal

  • try passing a polygrph exam with this condition. inconclusive everytime.

  • yeah i believe they may be talking about the likelihood of of R on T phenomenon when saying "only beats away from v-tach. Those PVC's are extremely close to the T wave of the sinus beats. More likely beats away from Torsades (a polymorphic VTach), but either way would be concerting.

  • yeah, v-tach is beyond far from happening here....the heart rate shown is normal. It doesn't even break over a 100...and even around 100-110 can be normal...anything over while at rest is v-tach....
