Why My Heart Is Skipping A Beat?

My heart feels like it has been skipping a beat and then will resume with a very hard beat. It is doing this over and over again, many times in a minute for about two days. I have had this before but only isolated incidents. I feel a little weak and tired too.

Hi,

From your description it seems that you have premature beats. It is a type of arrhythmia that is normal in small amount during the day.
If they are more frequent, it can be cause by stress, dehydration or irregular lifestyle. Try to regulate your lifestyle, avoid stress, drink much water, eat food rich in potassium and magnesium.
If your complaints don't disappear in a couple of days, see your doctor and have an ECG done.

Hope I could help you

Wishing you good health
