Heart Palpitations, Fluttering Sensation, Cough. Holter Monitor Shows PVC's. Cause Of Worry?
Hi! I have had palpatations in the past (not caffiene related)...wore holter monitor ...just showed PVC s but not often. So, I have not worried about it. I have noticed during the past month that I have a flutter and it makes me cough--- just one cough but it is an odd sensation. This happens problably about 2 x a week. Should I be concerned? Thanks! :)

hi.good afternoon
i have gone through your problems.
occasional PVCs may occur from smoking,alcohol,from some drugs.but main cause related to anxiety and heart disease.
now inform me about your age,smoking habit,blood sugar level,bp level,drug history.
do an ecg,echocardiography and holter minitoring to exclude any heart cause.
if you are suffering from anxiety,then take anxiolytic.do meditation.
you can consult a cardiologist also.
bye.take care
