Is Shivering Chest Like Inside Tremors While Having PVCs Normal?

The palpitations I experience was diagnosed as PVC s & told it d nothing to worry about. That was a few months ago. My symptoms are at times very distracting & uncomfortable, it actually feels like my chest is shivering (not cold), like inside tremors. Is this normal?

Thanks for your question on HCM.
In my opinion youneed to get done ECG again. As PVC (Premature Ventricular Contraction) can lead to arrhythmia sometimes.
If ECG is normal than go for holter monitoring.
Holter monitoring is 24 hour continuous recording of ECG. So we can easily picked the rhythm abnormality.
If this is also normal than no need to worry about cardiac cause.
You should get done CBC and TSH Level to rule out anemia and thyroid problems as they may also cause similar symptoms.
If all these are normal than your symptoms are mostly due to anxiety. So better to consult psychiatrist and start treatment.
