Why is it only when i lay down my heart skips a beat?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
? more noticeable: It is common for hearts to skip beats now and then and generally not serious. It is very likely that your heart also skips beats when you are not lying down but you don't notice the subtle sensation. When you are lying down you are less distracted by other things and more likely to notice it.
