A member asked:
I usually get this type of palpitation (my heart skips a beat) for a few seconds. i get it about once a day, but it's been happening all today nonstop?

Skipped beats: In a young person like yourself it's probably fine. Cut down on caffeine (yea soda energy drinks coffee) and obviously any drugs if you're using them. If it's associated with passing out or nearly passing out then seek attention now.
