Heart skips/palpitations

Last night I was having a really long and amazing steth but heard my heart constantly skipping beats.

I couldn't feel the skips but they were so easy to hear. I've got asthma but never noticed the skips before. Earlier in the night my chest was a little tight but it was fine when listening.

Does anyone else have anything similar?

I'll have to keep checking and see a doctor if it continues

I’ve heard the occasional skip but like you I couldn’t feel them.

Since having a serious bout of covid-19 last year my lungs aren’t what they used to be so I expect to hear issues with them.

I started a girl years ago who would get pvcs after drinking energy drinks.. She made it a point to guzzle a Red Bull a few minutes before the appointment for me to steth her.

I have a lot of skips, like really it‘s so frightining for me

See your doctor as soon as possible.

Listening can tell a lot to someone who has years of experience listening to all kinds of good and bad sounds, but experience limited to one's own heart or to a few close friends' will not, I repeat not, provide adequate information to make any kind of diagnosis.

Harmless palpitations can be caused by a number things such as fatigue, stress, alcohol, and a few more. However, palpitations can also be caused by very serious, even life-threatening, conditions such as cardiomyopathy, heart valve disease, and others.

So, consult a doctor ASAP. If DR says it is nothing to be concerned about, you're off the hook for now. But if it something serious and you don't consult, you could be in real trouble.

I too get skips once in a while. Those seem to be a “bonus” to the fast heart rate and palpitations that i also have. Haven't seen a doctor for that though.

I had pounding irregular beats, skipped beats, etc., for decades. Doctors called them “benign PVCs”. Said to cut out caffeine. That didn’t help much. Late in life, I discovered I had a magnesium deficiency. I’ve been taking magnesium supplements and the PVCs have virtually disappeared. Doctor is happy….I am happier!
