Specializes in Psychiatry

Skipped Heart beat: I understand your concern about “heartskip a beat” We all occasionally feel them. It is likely that you had skipped beat due to Stress. It is not due to cough or not eating. They may occur due to use of Caffeine, Nicotine, Electrolyte imbalance or Heart disease. See Psychiatrist for Therapy for stress of relationship, unresolved feelings of worry, fear, hurt, resentment; work and finances.
