Ectopic heartbeats all day everyday!

About a year ago I started to get some ectopic heartbeats, these would just come and go and not worry me too much. However, throughout the year the ectopic heartbeats became more frequent, and now I have them all day every day. I do suffer from anxiety and always have done thought my life. I have now been to see my GP, who didn't seem to concern as my pulse was regular and slow (I have always had a slow heart rate due to a lot of exercises). I had an ECG done after seeing the GP which picked up the ectopic beats I was experiencing. The GP has prescribed me Propranolol which has calmed my anxiety and slowed my heart rate even further! Anyhow the ectopic beats are still happening all day every day, I have only been on the medication for a few days. Has anyone else on this forum experienced ectopic beats all day every day and what do people recommend?
