pvc conversion

I have hypertension under control with Procardia. For 9 years I've had PVCs with no symptoms of problems. For a week my pulse is beating normally and stays around 72 during regular activity. What causes the change in pulse rhythm?

I don't understand your question.

From what you say all I can comment on is a HR of 72 during "regular activity" is rather normal if that is sitting, and rather low if that is walking around or more.

What change in pulse rhythm are you talking about? Are you asking about heart rate, or about how regular the rate is at any given physical level?

Best,
Jerry
