She has PVC does that make a difference? Like ER or make a Dr. appt?

128 is normal for a child of 7, and we all have pvc's from time to time. Is the child complaining of any chest pain or shortness of breath? If not, wouldn't worry about it, mention it the next time you see the doc, so he can reassure you, but wouldn't rush her in just for that.

no younger people have faster heart rates than adults because they are smaller. 128 is normal for a 7 year old girl

no thats not normal your pushing cardio in 30 more beats a minute her heart has to feel like she is constantly running... how do I know this because I'm a runner

honey i would get that checked out, 128 seems a bit high, you don't want tachycardia(fast hearbeat)
