I WAS WONDERING IF I COULD EVEN HAVE THESE PVCS BECAUSE I CAN SOMETIMES GO DAYS MAYBE EVEN WEKS WITHOUT HAVING ANY FLUTTERS OR HEART RACING

No PVCs are not life threatening. Almost everyone has them but not everyone feels them. I've had them for almost 3 decades. Most of these rhythm issues are not dangerous in an otherwise healthy heart.

Hi jake, sounds like what most have PAC/pvs, where your heart races,pounds,skips ,flutters, slows down, feels like it stops

You really need go dr have test ran like stress test, echo, wear a heart monitor just so they can see what's going on, but looks like you might be joining the club sad to say. Let us know how your doing
