I do know that underlying anxiety and stress can cause palpitations and skipped beats. I’ve had that happen many times and so have many people on this site.
it’s also important to get a physical exam at least once a year so if you haven’t had one recently you might want to start there. let your doctor know what’s going on and see what he or she thinks.
so if you’ve been anxious lately or stressed out, that could be what is causing this to happen. Adrenaline is released when we are anxious and it causes rapid heart rate, skipped beats, and other sensations in the body. All of which are not harmful when due to anxiety. Try some deep breathing exercises and meditations for anxiety found on YouTube to see if that helps a little bit. Feel better soon
