I’ve been having mild arrhythmias lately. I ma not sure if I should see a doctor about it, I think it is because I’ve under the lot of stress lately, I doubt that there is some underlying heart disease. Are arrhythmias serious? Will I have the consequences of arrhythmias?

I think you should see a doctor. Apparently they can be harmless or more serious in nature depending on the hemodynamic consequence of the arrhythmia and the possibility of evolving into a lethal arrhythmia. Occasional PVCs are generally considered benign because they have little hemodynamic effect. But ventricular tachycardia is a serious condition that can lead to heart failure, or worse, to ventricular fibrillation and death.
