No!. This is a normal thing!. It usually means that you need to get some sleep, or you are really dizzy!. Try drinking some water and getting some rest!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

There's a very good chance it's whats known as a PAC or a PVC!.

PAC=Premature Atrial Contraction
PVC=Premature Ventriclular Contraction

Each heartbeat starts in the sinus node and then 4 chambers beat in sequence one right after the other!. If one of the 4-chambers gets a little out of sequence, it will jump back into rhythm on the next beat and you will feel a sort of a "skip"

Everybody has them!. Things like stress, lack of sleep, low magnesium or potassium, or just about anything can increase the frequency!.

If it becomes a frequent thing (as in dozens of times a day) you might want to see a doctor!.

Bottom line is - they can be a little bit scary - but they are 100% harmless and don't affect you whatsoever!.Www@Answer-Health@Com

palpitations-

Palpitations are the unpleasant sensations of irregular and/or forceful beating of the heart in the chest!. This symptom can be caused by a change in the rate or rhythm, or by an increase in the force of the contraction of the heart muscle!. In some patients with palpitations, no heart disease or abnormal heart rhythms can be found!. In others, palpitations result from abnormal heart rhythms called arrhythmias!. Arrhythmias are heartbeats that are too slow, too rapid, irregular, or too early!.
