Like I said, if they notice it feels like a skipped beat (but isn't).
Sitting here right now reading and writing messages, I cannot even feel my
heartbeat.  If it were to have a single PVC in among its beats, pretty sure
I'd not know.

If you get a bunch in a row, it feels like a flutter in your chest.  If
that goes on for more than a few seconds, it can be disconcerting.

For me, yes, that apparently is what caused it to happen enough to be
noticable.  For others, it could be caused by other things.  If someone was
having them and regularly noticing them, they should probably talk to their
doctor about it, especially if they have a history (their own, or family)
of heart issues.

They had me wear a 24hr heart monitor, which lead to the diagnosis (i.e.
that I have PVCs more often than what is considered normal, but not often
enough to be worried about or medicated for).
