pvcs and iron

can pvc's be caused by anemia?

Yes, my iron was the first thing to be checked out with my pvcs to see if that was causing them.

It can also be caused by low potassium.

I only get pvcs when I get a bad case of acid reflux.  The first time it happened when I was in Saudia Arabia and drinking their bottled lemon tea.  I was put in the field hospital and may the monitor showed where my heart was palpitating.  I stopped the tea, got rid of the acid and the pvcs stopped.  Now, I've had acid for about a week and the pvcs are back.  Whenever I eat anything, my heart will go off about once.  VERY SCARY.

PVCs can be caused by a LOT of things that we may be missing OR have too much of.  Also, magnesium and calcium.  I notice that when I take extra magnesium, my PVCs are a little better.
