Q: PVCs with weakness and dizziness

I had a duel cabg 12/04, followed by MI, both arteries clogged and repeat both CABG. develop arritymia, and area of heart not dead but not contracting properly, mild leaks in mitral an atria valves. On aspirin, plavix, altace, corig, cumadium, and 80mg daily Lipitor. Have had period episodes of PVC's off and on for two years. Had ICD defibulator/pacemaker implanted 9/06. I am now experiencing a pvc every three or four beats, feeling weak, dizzy, can actually feel pvcs and when lying down hear them on the pillow.
Prior to my first CABG was told in cath lab that my heart was in really great shape for a 64 year old man, that it would last another 50 years.

Please help! Sad Sad

Premature ventricular contractions (or skipped heart beat / palpitation) may be prevented by stopping caffeine. Do you drink any of it?

Also how often do you exercise?

alcohol too.. that will give you heart palpitations... not the day you are drinking by more often the day after.
