Thanks for your question on Health Care Magic.
I can understand your concern.
PVC s(premature ventricular contractions) are diseases of conduction system of heart. So routine heart tests will not identify the cause.
For diagnosis, you need to get done Holter monitoring (24 hour continuous monitoring of ecg) and elecgrophysiological study (EP study).
You may require anti arrhythmia drugs for control.
So better to consult cardiologist, discuss all these, first diagnose yourself and then start appropriate treatment.
Anti arrhythmia drugs like diltiazem, Cordarone etc are useful in PVCs.
Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
