Extra heart beats are quite normal, even in people who have no heart rhythm problems.

Have a look at this talk about them by cardiologist Dr Sanjay Gupta who works at York hospital in the UK:

I was diagnosed with ectopic heart beats after baby born, he is 52 now , so I would not worry dear.

After having them for so long did they ever make you feel bad or weird ? Or did you not have symptoms ? I’m always curious to ask those who have had them for a long time

No never knew I was diagnosed to busy with baby, years later I read the report after doctor mentioned it , but it’s a common thing , nothing to worry about , I can feel bad and weird dear but generally because things are not going well with work…it’s nothing , just try and forget it was mentioned.

I had that after bad heart attack, a bigeminey. I got no extra treatment and it just went away all on its own.
