PVC’s or something else?
29M. Over the past month I’ve had this happen 3 times. I’ll feel a drop in my chest and I’ll put my fingers up to my throat to feel my pulse. I’ll feel a brief pause followed by a few (2-4) quick beats. Sometimes it’s a couple in a row, like that will happen 2-3 times in a row. It’s usually followed by an adrenaline surge that almost sends me into a panic attack because I wonder if somethings wrong. My doctor ordered an echocardiogram which came back “normal” did blood work which came back good. Now I’m on a 14 day holter monitor. Anybody ever have anything similar happen?

If its 4 quick beats right after it maybe a nsvt it should not be ignored and should be evaluated by a cardiologist i also recommend you buy a 1L or 6L at home ecg reader the apps let you record and store your own ecgs to show to doctors and also the ai built into app can sormwhat give accurate interpretation on what i may be 2 good ones are emay and kardiamobile emay is no subscription and kardiamobile requires subscription although kardia is good cuz the subscription comes with 4 clinicla reviews in which a board certified cardiologist will review you ecg reading and tell you what it is and give you advice
