Detailed Answer:
Hello
Thanks for the query
What you might be experiencing could be either a premature ectopic or an atrial fibrillation ( arrythmia). It is a medical emergecy, I strongly recommend you to approach the ER for an ECG. Do not ignore it
My suggestions are
1. Do not drive yourself to the ER
2. Avoid stress and strenuous activities
3. Please do not drink or eat anything until you reach the ER
I hope I was of help, please get back to me if you have any further queries
