Detailed Answer:
Hello!
Welcome on Ask a Doctor Service!
I understand your concern and would explain that some ectopic heart beats are quite normal in every healthy individual.
Anyway, I would recommend performing an ambulatory 24-48hours ECG monitoring in order to examine your heart rhythm trends for a prolonged period of time!
Some blood lab tests are necessary too:
- complete blood count for anemia
- thyroid hormone levels for thyroid gland dysfunction
- blood electrolytes for electrolyte imbalances.
Hope you will find this answer helpful!
Kind regards,
Dr.Ilir Sharka, Cardiologist
