    Dear Sunny

    I have veen having them today too! They are horrible because they raise the adrenaline snd this makes me tense and nervous. For me it always is linked into what i've been eating. I havd researched this and apparently our digestive system is linked to our heart. Soy is my enemy! Dairy and wheat sre in question. If i can keep my gut quiet, the heart remains pretty good. Hope this helps. All the best.

    Hi Sunny

    As Annie said our Digestive system is linked to our Heart, there is a valve of some sort that is more or less adjacent to your Heart. And is part of the digestive system, all I know is at times with build up of gas it puts pressure on your Heart affecting its rhythm and can also bring on Anxiety. Only when the gases are released, you will find everything will shortly settle, also on the subject of dropped/missed or skipped beats, they are in fact extra or premature beats, BUT, it is only the pause that is noticed. Hope this dampens your concern.

      Thanks DaveyDee for your reply. Its good to know others have noticed or discovered this problem where the gas and heart beats as re connected. I wish someone eould do medical research on it and help us. My cardiologist is so aware of it and has many patients with the same problem. I guess we just have to work out what causes the gas. Or how to get rid of it quickly!@

      Cheers
