I am just wondering I have PVCs thousands a day and they are benign and my heart is structurally sound. But I hear that if you have heart disease then they are no longer benign! So question is what if in the future I develop heart disease/heart attack in future because of ageing for example does that make my PVCs dangerous??

Then the PVCs won't be an issue--the heart disease will be the issue. PVCs are rarely an issue at any age, unless they are one of many symptoms of structural heart issues.

@Jampot - it doesn't work quite like what you're thinking, that X+Y = Something Scary.

The reason PVCs in a structurally unsound / diseased heart is of concern is that the disease may be causing the PVCs.

Now there are lots of kinds of heart disease. Which are you talking about?

Some may cause electrical imbalances, which yes, can cause PVCs, and those PVCs MAY BE a harbinger of more serious problems, problems that may need to be addressed in relatively short order.

But if you've always had PVCs and continue to always have PVCs in the presence of some kind of heart disease, I'm sure your doctor will review that information, run a few tests and make that determination. In 30 - 40 years. So for now? Chillax.
