If it helps you to know, my grandmother has suffered frequent PVCs since the
1940's. She is now 95 and still has a healthy heart. She, like your father,
does not feel them, but none the same, they are there and have been for over
50 years now. I too have frequent ones that I feel. I devoloped them over 2
years ago and it calms me knowing my grandmother is still alive, active and
well dispite her palpitations.
