A member asked:

Are skipped heart beats dangerous if you have normal tests? and can a caffeine drink and anxiety cause a skipped beat? :(

No.: There is a benign condition causing skip beats called mitral valve prolapse. A lot of caffeine and anxiety could also cause it. With normal tests, don't worry too much. It feels worse when you focus on it too much, so, relax.
