Experience flutters and skips most days
Just lying in bed.. didn't feel anxious at all and my heart skipped about 3-4 beats one after the other and didn't return to normal rhythm for about 5 seconds. What the hell is this and how can it just happen randomly.

Waiting on results of holter but didn't get anything near that bad when it was on... just minor skips.

If the holter hasn't picked anything up ask if you can wear it for longer. Yes it's a pain in the backside having it on for 7 days or whatever but at least if it catches a run of them together you will get a better diagnoses :)

This happens to me. But it lasts for minutes. Along with a very fast irregular heartbeat. It is the scariest experience I have ever had. I have no idea what it is. Ekg didnt pick it up and doctor seems to brush me off. Im on beta blocker for the last few days and it hasnt happened since but feel like im living on the edge just waiting for it to happen again.
