What Causes Skipping Of Heart Beat?

Hi, my heart keeps missing a beat and beating hard whilst having a shaky feeling in it. Was just happening when sat still but now when I pick up my daughter, go upstairs etc. my pulse seems normail, in fact quite low about 55 bpm. Waiting for echo as dr thought could hear murmur too. But now symptoms worse. I normal do an exercise class most mornings but worried to go incase get symptoms. Should I excercise? What is happening to me? Also feel as if I have a wheeze deep inside chest that I can t get too.

Hello



Escape beat or missing beat could be physiological or it could be functional nonspecific, if the condition remains or long last then it need to be looked for underlying cause like heart disease and for that one need go for EKG this is the standard test to see the conduction system of heart, murmur could be due to low hemoglobin and valvular heart disease, cardiacmyopathy, you have to go through all the necessary test to rule out the causes of your conduction system and murmur, age could be the cause.
