Specializes in Cardiac Electrophysiology

Benign?: Persistent tachycardia is not benign, should be investigated & treated. May require some blood work too. I assume you feel that you are skipping beats, but it has not been documented. They may not show up on an ECG. You may need longer rhythm analysis by a rhythm recorder that continuously monitors your heart rhythm for 24-48 hours, or even longer if need be. See Ur doc. Good luck.
