Sometimes when i get anxious it feels like my heart skips a beat. is this dangerous?

Heart beats: Premature or late heart beats feel like a skipped or extra beat. The feeling of skipping one beat is very common and within the realm of normal. This symptom you describe happens to everyone! Sustained irregular heart beats that lead to fatigue, fainting and dizziness are unsafe and should be evaluated.
