I have been to a cardiologist and had a monitor... found nothing out of the norm...
I can lay in bed at night and take my pulse and feel missing beats. It feels like it will beat fine for a little bit and then one will drag. I can feel it is my chest, sort of like mt heart quivers a little. There are some nights that it will skip over and over again and I get really tired.
My ex-husband was a medic in the navy and he has listened with a stethoscope and can hear it, so I am pretty sure I am not going insane...
Does anyone else have this?
I never know when it is going to happen, sometimes for hours and sometimes just a few times in a day, but it worries me...

I know exactly what you mean when you say that one beat "drags"
I've had that happen to me almost always when I'm sleeping or in the early morning and i wake up and notice my heart beating irregular, with a beat, beat, beat,
bea----eat, kinda thing. I've had the echo, monitor, and ekg, and everything looks "just fine" so I guess I have to live with it. But you aren't crazy, and not alone. I am thinking it could be hormones? I don't know what else could be contributing to it. We're still here though so try not to get to stressed over it. Since even the doctors don't know what to tell you, other than put you on meds which I didn't want to do.

is it something like ur heat beats in a rhythm? but one beat would be slightly delayed? i felt that when i felt my pulse too. i think it happens all e time but the dr nv detected it or anything.

luv2play,

See if you can find some magnesium oxide. It often works wonders for minor rhythmm irregularities. Take daily either 250 mg. magnesium or 500 mg.
If it works, great. If not, you're out $4 bucks.
