Suggest Treatment For Irregular Heart Rate And Shortness Of Breath

i have noticed that my heart skips a beat several times a day and usually when I am either sitting or laying down. I do sometimes have shortness of breath and get dizzy. It feels like the beat is forcing something open, I dont really know how to discribe it
