Are these PVC`s

I know this question probably belongs in the heart forum but i know alot of you guys get these.

I just wanted to know if what i am experiencing are PVC`s. I just assumed they were without getting anyone to give me a description of one.

Could someone give my a detailed description of what a typical PVC feels like.

What i interprut as PVC`s are a feeling asthough my heart bops up a down for a second as though it freaks out in a little dance.

Is that it?

It feels like your heart is flip, flopping around with each beat. Mine feels like it skips a beat,kind of like   when you ride a car up and down hills on the road real fast, but constantly happening. I hope you feel better! Anxiety in my case make them worse!

Just like fearfactor I get that up and down feeling...I always said it feels like I do when I take an elevator.  Also, sometimes I get a burning/pins and needles sensation for a split second in my hands.  I am used to them now after much reassurance from the cardiologist and primary docotrs but it can be quite upsetting (which makes them more frequent).  Hope this helps, take care.

It feels to me like my heart beats super hard for just one beat, and sometimes I get a feeling sort of like an "electrical shock" with it or that feeling you get in your stomach when you go on a roller coaster.  You know, that sort of "up and down" feeling.  What you said about your heart bopping up and down sounds like it.

Jon, I found this link for you http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Premature_ventricular_contraction

Make sure you look at the "causes" section. The number one spot is anxiety. Do you think it could be this? I hope it helps!!!
