Been having panic attacks and severe anxiety for a few months. Started of that I noticed pvc, and they where many. Did all the heart checks, and had 12% when tested. Eventually the doctors couldn't find anything wrong even though i had chest pains, diziness, fatigue, attacks every single day. But all

I am planning to buy the watch and the local apple shop ( Edinburgh UK) and wanted to ask a few questions before hand. Ive read some on what the watch

Sudden ‘Possible Afib’

Frequent PVCs
Does anyone with longstanding frequent PVCs know if they are multifocal and emanate from both right and left ventricles?. If so, can they determine what provokes the PVCs from the right ventricle vs what provokes the PVCs from the left ventricle?
