PVC's and Alcohol

Posted By T.Wright on November 22, 1998 at 20:49:41:







I have been reading alot of the Docters responses on PVC's.  I would like
for someone to respond to the following.  
I have not used nicotine or caffiene in my daily routine for nearly 4 years
now.  I am a nervous person by nature and have had several once a year bouts
with Atrial fibrilation.  I have (2) questions.
1) Can nerves or anxiety create a pattern of PVC's?
2) I have read where docters say alcohol can cause PVC's.  How long would
alcohol have to be out of your system for the heart to be free of these
PVC's.  I have noticed on days I drink up to 4 to 5 beers PVC's start almost
on ingestion and may continue into the morning.  Is this something to be
worried about or just maybe over active nerves?
Thank You
