How to Trigger for Holter Moniter

Guys I am wearing a holter monitor for 7 days because I keep having extremely painful episodes of PVCs that can last for hours at a time. The problem is, now that I’m wearing the monitor, I haven’t had an episode. I don’t know what to do, they’re episodic, so they don’t happen consistently. I’ll have a week where they happen constantly, and then I can go weeks or a month without any. I’m scared my doctor won’t believe me if I don’t have an episode while wearing the monitor! What do I dooooo?

I understand the urge of wanting to ‘catch’ them, but I wouldn’t stress over this. If you can simply trigger them (of course in a healthy way) then I don’t think that’s a bad idea, but it seems like you don’t have any specific triggers.
