Palpitations?: Nice to hear from you. Almost everybody has "heart skips" -- the heart feeling like it's doing flipflops in the chest -- from time to time. You may have less vagal tone now that you're devoting yourself to more non-sports activities, but if the skips aren't taking your breath away, don't hurt and are fewer than 5/mintue, don't worry. If they bother you, the first step is to cut back on coffee.

Be safe: Have it checked. It is better to be safe. Don't wait any longer.

See your Dr: It can be normal for elite athletes to have occasional extra or missed beats, but it could be telling you something as well--so you should see your dr or a cardiologist for at least an ekg and likely echocardiogram to have a look at the function of the heart. If you are using caffeine or "energy" drinks or stimulants, stop them, as can bring these out.
