Hey Reddit!,

I’ve always had these “weird” feeling heartbeats that would often take my breathe away. I’ve been to doctors and cardiologists and they never happen (of course) when they do tests like EKGs and doctors always say I’m perfectly fine (even did a echocardiogram).

I finally was feeling them and I think I was able to capture it on my Apple Watch.

Is this what a PVC looks like? Again feel they uncomfortable and makes me short of breath when it happens.

I will definitely be showing it to my doctor as well.

    I though I was going insane as I get those too. Feels like a sucker punch to my chest that takes all the breath out of me for a second. Was googling it and couldn’t find anyone having same weird heart skips. You ever got a possible diagnosis OP? I’ve seen multiple GPs and I’ve been ignored countless times.

      Nah no diagnosis but this is extremely common apparently. I’m going to check in with my doctor and it most likely is just harmless

        Yeah most likely they’re nothing to worry about, but they do feel very uncomfortable when they happen. I don’t suspect having any heart disease at 25, but I’d feel safer knowing if I’m predisposed to any or not. Frustratingly thought those PVCs could be warning signs of something serious OR they could be completely harmless. Wishing you all the best OP and finding a diagnosis!
