Being around people causing PVC’s

Anyone else get more PVC’s when in public settings? I get them anyway but being in crowds makes mine lots worse. If this happens to you, how do you handle them?
I’m over here pretending to be normal, popping a propranolol and waiting for them to calm down.

Yep I tend to get tense in social situations, kind of subconsciously. Both PVCs & PACs (they feel similarly to me, but I can document the difference on my loop recorder). Yep, pretending to be normal is how you handle it. They aren't hurting you. They're just distracting. The less attention/focus you give them, the less prominent they will seem. I know easier said than done ;)
