Hi,I am Dr. Prabhakar Koregol (Cardiologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I am experiencing premature ventricular contractions on a daily basis all of a sudden. No one can tell me why. Sometimes they are as frequent as every two to three heartbeats, it makes me cough and I feel terrible. My doctor keeps saying there is nothing to worry about. But I am wondering why they have suddenly started.
