I’ve been having an irregular heartbeat for some time now?

I went to a walk in clinic and the Dr. advised I have Premature Atrial Contractions. He also advised they are no cause for worry, however, I have been having them more frequently now and am beginning to get concerned. Any opinions?

Does anyone have tips on how to sleep with PVCs or PACs?

Premature atrial and ventricular contractions are considered harmless by the 3 doctors and 2 cardiologists I’ve seen, but what a pain in the ass! Those of you who are as unfortunate as me to actually feel every single one of them, how do you cope? I can’t sleep, and then being tired makes them worse. I take atenolol, but it doesn’t seem to do much. Does anyone have any favorite medicine to control them or sleep through them?
