Brief Answer:
Holter 24hour ECG is must in your case.

Detailed Answer:
Hi Mam,

I understand your query and concern.

Your symptoms largely reflect the underlying cause as PVC's.

This is a kind of arrhythmia,which has propensity to cause serious fluctuations in coronary blood flow leading to chest pain and pressure like sensation.

Toporol is a good drug along with aspirin but definitive management requires further investigation.

I advise you to have a screening 2 dimensional echo along with 24 hour Holter EKG to accurately determine the nature of arrhythmia and subsequent treatment.

Post your further queries,if any.
Thank you.
