Another PVC Question

I had posted here some time ago asking about PVC's. I have been diagnost
with PVC's and am currently taking Atenolol(50mg).I have another
question. Lately, as I have become more tuned with the workings of my
heart, I have noticed something interesting. My PVC's come in two distinct
parts. First the "flutter feeling" then the "strong beat". When the strong
beat occurs, I get a wierd pressure feeling in my head and around my eyes.
After a day of severe PVC's (around 5-10 a minute), I have a pretty serious
headache from the pressure. Is this anything to be worried about? Care to
speculate on the mechanisms that cause this?
Thank You.
