its called an arrhythmia and it causes the pulse to become too fast or too slow because the heart's natural pacemaker is not working correctly, or because electrical impulse that travel across the heart cause the different chambers to beat slightly out of sequence.

Hi~It is when occasional heart beats are "missed" or spaced unevenly apart. It is caused by an apparent drop of the heartbeat. Many healthy people have them, they are common, they can go by the name of PVC or PAC. They are usually benign, meaning not serious. They can be due to a heart mal function, but lots of time they are due to stress, gastric disorders and even hiatal hernias.
Hope this helps

your heart is set by the sinus node to beat at regular intervals, sometimes the electrical conduction thru the heart that makes it beat in a regular fashion is interrupted and then the regular pattern of beating is interrupted and you get an irregular heart beat.

Its when your heart beat fast. Nothing to worry about I have it also.Sometimes your heart will skip a beat. I'm on a beta blocker call Metoprolol ask your doctor about it. It helps. It slows the heart and stop the skip beats. You are not going to die or anything u will not have a heart attack nothing like that it just beat fast, trust me nothing to worry about ok.

Bum, bum, bum, bum, bum = regular
Bun, diddy bum, diddy bum, diddy bum, diddy bum, diddy bum, diddy bum, bum, bum = irregular.
Simple
