A member asked:
Had a stress echo for left shoulder pain. negative results. having palpitations and skipped beats. should i be worried?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Hard to say: Skipped beats are not uncommon as one ages. A 24 hour Holter monitor is often helpful if the echocardiogram did not documented any irregularities. Make certain your thyroid tests are within normal range as this may play a role.
