Strange heartbeat

I have been diagnosed with benign PVC's, however sometimes I get a strange heartbeat that doesn't seem to be a PVC or PAC.  It feels like my heart will be really fast for 2 or 3 beats, hold for a second like a PVC and then settle back into a normal rhythm.  Has anyone else had something similar and know what it could be?

I have psvt and had an ablation Feb 2014, all is well, but from time to time I do have pac and also feel the 2 or 3 sometimes 5 plus...then everything returns to normal but my mind... sometimes I think we over think....panic and that just starts the cycle all over again....

I get these too. Very Freaky. Sometimes up to 9 in a row before returning to normal. I think they are either runs, salvos or non-sustained ventricular tachycardia, but maybe someone else here can explain it better than I can.
Anyways, 7 years with them and i'm still here.
