What Causes Premature Ventricular Contractions?

Hi. I've been suffering from isolated cases of PCVs and SVTs for the past year and four months. All the doctors here in Munich and Berlin say it is of no consequence. Last night I experienced 6-7 really strong PVCs one after the other. I'm not under any stress or anxiety. I am from Banglore and here to study. Such PVCs without any normal heartbeats in between happened for the first time. They don't want to do an electrophysiological study for me here. What should I do?

Hi There

I have read the details provided by you and i understand your concern very well. I would like to suggest you that go for HOLTER MONITORING which is a 24 hrs ambulatory ECG recording. If the report of the HOLTER shows a PVC's burden of more than 10% then we need to consider it for some treatment and if it is less than that you really need not worry and even if they are bothering you I want you to start Tab. ABANA (HIMALAYA pharma) two tablets twice a day for one month then 2 tablets daily for another 2 months. Its basically a herbal med that is very good for heart and also take care of these premature beats and if even after 3 months of taking it you didn't feel relieved then i would like to start you on LOW dose BETA BLOCKERS.

And another important thing if you SMOKE then STOP it completely as smoking can aslo cause PVC's itself.

Good Luck
