Pac's and Breathing

Hello.  I'm a 30 year old male and have had Pac's and Pvc's for about 4 or 5 years.  I've had echo's,ekg, and stress tests that showed that that they are not dangerous arrhythmias.  Lately though it seems that they are brought on more by physical activity, even light activity.  Is it possible that things could have changed and I might need to be tested again.  I know I'm extra nervous about these, but  it's been 3 or 4 years since I've had a test.  My second question is about breathing I always feel like I need to take a deep breath, and sometimes It takes a couple of tries to catch a deep breath.  Doctors in the past have told me it's a habbit and nothing more.  Could my breathing cause the arrhythmias or could the arhythmias cause the weird breathing.  I've always had the weird breathing, but since the pvc's started it seems worse.  Thank's a lot for you response.  This is a great forum you have to help people.
