Hi armandow11, I'm far from the best person to give any advice with this, but as no-one else has responded as yet I thought I'd give it a go.You seem to have had several tries at intervention. I've read a lot about ablations not working first time around, so maybe a repeat might be worth pursuing? I didn't think that pacemakers could help get rid of PVCs and helped more with speeding the heart up a bit, so it would be hard to make a comment on how or why you had that. Maybe a visit to your cardiologist might help. You could ask some questions and fins our about any further treatment options.

One thought is that maybe it's the anxiety which is keeping you a prisoner of PVCs, and that tackling that might provide an answer. It sounds complex, and I'm sure it would be best to consult with a medical professional about it all. Best wishes though and I hope you can find an answer!
