[|Human|] My question is about skipping heart beats .. A year ago I felt the same then it was gone now a week ago it started again skipping ..It worries me not knowing whether it is dangerous or not ?.I take high blood pressure medicine Atacand & bisoprolol as well as synthroid & all kinds of vitamins..
[|AI|]  Thanks for your question on Chat Doctor. I can understand your concern. Skipping beat in hypertensive patient can be due to arrhythmia (rhythm disturbances in heart). You had similar symptoms 1 year ago, so we should thoroughly investigate this because if not treated promptly, arrhythmias can be life-threatening. So consult cardiologist and get done ECG, 2d echo and Holder monitoring (24 hour continuous monitoring of ECG). You may need anti arrhythmia Chat Doctor.  Don't worry, you will be alright. First diagnose yourself and then start appropriate treatment. Hope I have solved your query. I will be happy to help you further. Wish you good health. Thanks.
