Does PVC Cause Heart Palpitations?
Hi, I was diagnosed with pvc's last october, after at least 10 years of not going to the doctor. I was advised no treatment except eat a banana and an orange a day. I also have another issue with my heart, it speeds up when i inhale and slows down when I exhale, but this doesnt happen to my husband, so is it because of my pvc's? I'm a 25 year old white female.

PVCs can cause palpitation . Treatment is required basing on frequency assessed clinically or by 24 hr Holter. Variation of heart rate with breathing is not a matter of concern.
