PVC'S/Increase

I have had PVC's for 2 years now. At first, they did not occur as often
as they do now. I have them everyday now. Why is that? I do not stress
out about it as much as I used to. I realize that the heart (ventricle)
resets itself after the extra beat. My doctor has prescribed Atenlol for
me at 25mg. I currently take Paxil 10mg. Are the two okay to take
together?? I just want to know why at age 31 that I started getting
these annoying palpitations. There does not seem to be a good reason.
Can you give me some insight as to why these type of rythym disturbances
begin???? Finally, I know this has been somewhat long-winded, but do
PVC's get worse as we age???????
