Open Question: My heart started skipping beats unusually often today….is something wrong?
I’m 15 years old, going to be 16 in 2 months. Today, I was laying on my bed just resting and i felt my heart flutter in my chest. it was very uncomfortable and for a second, it caught my breath and made it a little hard to breathe. I get these quite often, but it usually only happens once and that was it. Today my heart fluttered 5 or 6 times in a row and it was hard to breathe after wards and i had some mild discomfort in my chest. Diabetes and high cholesterol followed by heart disease runs in my family but i’m very very healthy. I went to many checkups and my doctor said i was one of the healthiest kid they ever looked at. I do however have a bad diet and i have stress and anxiety problems, however i’m not stressed or anxious today. Is this serious, something i should be concerned about?
i also notice that whenever i’m laying down for a long time and then get up, my heart beats really fast, like i just got done excercising for about 20-30 seconds then it goes back to normal.
