Minor arrhythmias - do you have 'em and do they affect your medical?

At a routine checkup a while back I had an ECG done and they detected an arrhythmia. We decided to do a 24 hour holter check just to be sure.

We found I have 2 kinds of arrhythmia, both benign and common in young males (Like myself) and that I have no heart disease, just minor irregular timing and waveform shape. Looking around in some medical references they all state that these particular arrhythmias do not pose any risk of premature mortality nor do they indicate heart problems.

No medications prescribed nor needed.

What kind of problems will this cause if they appear during a routine air medical ECG?
