During your prior er visits the symptoms and ekg changes had likely resolved by time you were evaluated.

Likely nothing: Skipped beats are likely benign; however, can occasionally be a sing of something else. If they continue and become bothersome or are associated with chest discomfort or lightheadedness, you should be seen by a doctor.
