What Causes Arrhythmic Heart Beat?
Today I have experienced skipped heart beats, something I don t usually have. They have occurred anywhere from a minute to several minutes apart. I can have one or two in a row, then none for over a minute or more. I am a 74 year old female. Thank you.

Hello ma'am.
Thank you for writing us here.
Your condition is quite common at the age group Of yours and it occurs because of the electrolyte imbalance. Mostly because of potassium. So you should take care of your diet and have plenty of fruits and vegetables. You'll be alright I'm sure. If you need to contact me, here's my email
