Does anyone have any experience with Coreg for PVC?

I have been having a lot of PVC's lately...long rutrig and quad runs last night.  My cardiologist gave me Coreg to take if the PVCs got to hard to hanlde (all my tests were benign).  I think I need to try.  Just looking for any experience - reduce PVCs or the sensations, side effects, etc.  Thanks.

Beta blockers in no way are a cure for PVC's but they reduce blood pressure and therefore reduce the force of the contractions of the heart.  You should become less aware of your heart beating while you are on beta blockers.  Sometimes beta blockers can reduce the frequency and numbers of PVC's but usually do not get rid of them completely.  Someone that is plagued by PVC's a beta blocker is a good safe choice.  Beta blockers are great for the heart, and have some anti anxiety properties that are good for heart patients.
