Probably OK: Most people have abnormal heart beats or skipped beats. Many are not even aware of it, because we don't normally feel our heart beat. These are probably just occasional premature beats which are not dangerous, but if your cardiac workup did not involve a Holter monitor (looks like a pager, and senses your heart for several days), it should. Speak with your doctor. Hope this helps!
