It could be.It could be something called PVCs. These are benign extra beats. Then the heart skips a beat and it feels like a pause.But it could also be an arrhythmiaI would recommend you get it checked because of your age.You need an EKG and a test called a holter. It's a monitor you wear for 24 hrs. Please don't click "bad" or "poor" as this leaves negative feedback. If you aren't 100% satisfied, just click "continue conversation."
