Do you understand what PVCs are?  And when is your doctor appointment to follow up on your results?  Your doctor can expalin these to you clearly as well.

It looks like you are getting premature ventricular contractions. Bigeminy means you were getting PVCs every other beat (at time).  Trigeminy means a PVC every third beat.  I get them too.  Do you understand what those are?
