I usually have skipped heart beats with no other symptoms. I hear that people get chest pain but I don't. should I be worried ?

I’m sure there are many more qualified people than I here that could help you so I can only tell you my experience in the same situation. My anxiety is focused mainly on my heart so any “skipped beats” or anything funny causes me to go on alert mode checking, rechecking, evaluating every little thing then usually getting anxious because of it which only compounds it. I have been to the hospital 3 times, had 2 mri’s , 3 X-ray’s, 3 echocardiogram, 4 ekg a angiogram and multiple doctors and blood tests. Everything came back ok and it is normal to have “skipped beats” which are not really skips but a premature beat which is weak and the next beat is harder to make up for it. I have had skipped beats without pain or other symptoms and for me it was normal. If you are concerned you should see your doctor and get yourself checked out and listen to them. After all the tests I had done I still get anxious but then I think back to all the tests and the results to curb my anxiety. It took me a long time and quite a few tests until I accepted that my heart is ok.
