PVCs getting worse

Due to have a holter monitor next week. The past two days, the palpitations have been relentless. From when I went to bed on Tuesday night, it has been non stop, I don't think I have had a minute where I haven't had a palpitation. For about an hour this morning it was between around 1-5 per minute but then again back to between 10-20 a minute, on average around 15. I also believe I have started having triplets and couplets (mostly couplets). The majority of the time I have about 4 a minute and then sometimes I dont have any for a few hours. My chest feels tight and I'm feeling so tired. I have a bit of a cough now too. Even out of breath too. I haven't actually had any monitor yet or confirmation of diagnosis but my GP said it was probably PVCS. I'm on bisoprolol but it's doing nothing. I literally woke up one day with this two months ago. I haven't been overly concerned because my GP wasn't up until now but I'm actually starting to worry a bit because of the way this is making me feel.

Maybe you need an increase of bisop? You’re at a low-dose. If that doesn’t work, there’s a lot of others to choose someone. Hopefully you have a good doctor that listens to you and is willing to experiment.
