My husband is 31 yrs old and has recently seen a cardiologist about " him being very aware of his heart beat." He was in the ER, had an EKG and they just told him to stay away from caffeine. I am not sure what is going on, and just wanted to know if anyone ever experienced this before and/or has any idea of what it could be related to. His heart does not beat faster, but it was determined it was a possible AV block in the first degree, meaning the heart was "skipping a beat" Of course, this is a scary situation, but I just wanted some input to see if anyone else experienced this. He has further tests scheduled for after the holiday, an echocardiogram, a stress test and a holter monitor. His bloodwork all came back good, and the only other test the doc suggested was a lyme disease test, and I am not sure why? So any information that could help me, at least have a little peace of mind until further tests are done would be great.
