What Causes Skipped Heartbeat And Chest Pain?

sometimes my heart seems to skip a beat and i'd feel a shortness of breath for a second, then once in a while at random i'd feel a sudden sharp pain in the left side of my chest that extends to my underarm and hurts worse when i breathe deeply. Am I going to die?

HI
Well come to HCM
Looking to the history given here I would advised you to get done the cardiac evaluation test and this are ECHO test, EKG, and Stress test if this turns unremarkable then the symptoms would be nonspecific and this is nothing to worry, take care.
I find this answer helpful
