GET IT CHECKED BUT: You have high BP and high cholesterol and if you have concern about skip beat get it checked by your doctor It is highly unlikely that you have Atrial Fib due to few skip beats you feel.Atrial fibrillation causes ireregulary irregular heart beat and pulse constantly and not just a skipped beat noe and then
