What Causes Skipped Heart Beats?
I am 66 year old woman, and in pretty good health, I walk 2 miles 3 x a week, I was told yesterday my heart skips a beat about ever 6 beats, I have already had 12 lead EKG and stress test last year and my results were normal. Should I be of any concern?

hello.
welcome to HCM.
as all the tests are normal you dont have to worry.
sometimes this drop beats are ideopathic in nature.as long as they do not produce any symptom they are not harmful.
keep a healthy lifestyle and do regular check ups..thats all.
hope this is helpful.
regards.
