I can be laid in bed watching to, eating my tea, tidying up, doing the school run, mid convo and I get the sensation my heart skips a beat and I can't breath for a second. It's horrible, only started yesterday and I Thought I was going in to cardiac arrest at first as like I said it was like I stopped breathing for a second.

My question is what is this? Is it dangerous? How do you determine if it's anxiety again or something may actuAlly be going on x

Hello

If that feels unlike the norm, you should probably go and see your doctor. Chances are it might be nothing, but only a medical professional can guide you on that.

I suffer from palpitations and have had monitors etc. before and cardio say I am ok. Doesn't stop me from worrying every time I have an episode though :(

sounds like ectopic beats to me, when you get one it feels like it takes your breath away, I usually feel them in the throat, but get it checked out, most likely will be ectopics
