Hi,I am Dr. Prabhakar Koregol (Cardiologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
I was diagnosed with PVC's but the doctor opted not to give me any medication and I was never told why. I was also told my blood work came out good but again no one elaborated on what that meant although i had asked. I guess this is what in happens ER's please why did I not get meds for my PVC's and what does my blood work is good mean? What did they look for to come out with nthat conclusion?
hello thanks for posting here. By PVC i assume you are speaking about premature ventricular contractions. so PVCs are present in a small percentage of normal people who may not have symptoms. they are usually an incidental finding. PVCs can be life threatening but only when they occur in groups or continuously where patient may experience symptoms like dizziness, loss of consciousness etc. Otherwise single occasional PVCs require no treatment. on what blood work came normal i cant comment but probably looks like your cardiac enzymes had been sent which came out normal. thank you
