Hi friend,
Welcome to Health Care Magic
You have not stated your personal habits, family history, or co-morbidities, even age or gender...
You should see your cardiologist again... Irregular heart beats need to be DOCUMENTED by ElectroCardioGram (EKG). Standard ECG records the electrical activity of the heart, for a few seconds. It can detect the arrhythmia occurring during that time only. If the episode occurs randomly or precipitated by a specific activity like exercise, one needs Holter or event monitor.
TMT – Treadmill exercise ECG; may also be necessary to evaluate ischemia (reduced blood flow / Coronary Artery Disease)
Your orthopaedician could check for cervical spondylosis – root pain from compression.
Take care
Wishing speedy recovery
God bless
Good luck
