A member asked:

My heart seems to skip a beat and then it seems to take my breath away. little dizziness also. doesnt happen often. is this normal or what is it?

PVC: Sounds like a premature ventricular contraction. Almost everyone has these but not everyone notices them. If they really bother you, see your doc to rule out worrisome stuff.
