Missed heart beats

Norni profile image

I have recently had sensations of missed heart beats and also a couple of episodes of irregular heart beats following exercise which self corrected. I have had checks and have no heart disease, thankfully. I am 57, female and have a healthy BMI. I have started exercising regularly but only very gently. I don't really understand why this should be happening and what I can do to manage it. All thoughts gratefully received.

Hi Norni, it is common for the heart to occasionally skip a beat, often with no cause for concern. As you have experienced recurring symptoms however, it may be worth completing our Your Heart in Your Hands checklist to help you organise and list your symptoms prior to sharing with your GP aaaw.org.uk/files/file/1203... - thank you

It seems to have settled down. Occasionally if I run I get it, but because I've been checked out I am not so worried. Think you did the right thing getting checked out too, hope it works out for you.

I'm fine thank you. I have had extensive cardio investigations and had the all clear. I would encourage you to get it investigated if your heart rate is not right as there are various causes for it apparently. Better to be safe..... Good luck.
