EKG not showing Long QT?

Hello,

I'm 35, Male, 6'5" 215.   Good shape, exercise regularly.   I have a very low resting heart rate and often get hard thudding PVCs.   I have had one echo in 2004 as well as a holter, and 6 EKGs in the last 12 years.   All normal.

I'm very concerned they could've missed something like long QT.   I just feel like my slow heart rate has a "delay".   I've never fainted and have no family history (except AFIB in my 69 year old Father).  When I exercise my mind certainly quits before my body does.  

Any help is appreciated.

I don't know.   I guess I've been having anxiety since my Dad got AFIB.   Now I think my slow heart rate and palps are something very serious.

It doesn't sound like they would have missed over the years, and you aren't showing any symptoms.  So why worry about it?
