Thanks for posting your query.
Skipped heart beat is a sensation when you feel that the heart is racing and pounding and it can be due to various reasons such as Heart disorder, medications, anxiety, excitement, exercise etc.
Since your previous tests were within normal range you do not have any other symptoms and also you suffer from anxiety, it seems the main cause is anxiety disorder which is causing these symptoms.
Some suggestions for you:
1)Do some form of exercise daily as jogging,walking etc.
2)Reduce caffeine intake as they have a major affect in increasing the aforesaid symptoms.
3)Practice some relaxation techniques as Meditation, XXXXXXX breathing exercises, they will help you in anxiety even.
4)Have a well balanced, nutritious diet and avoid fat.
5)Restrict smoking and alcohol.
6)Have adequate sleep.
7)Reduce anxiety and stress levels.
If along with skipping heart beat you notice any other symptom as chest pain, breathlessness, dizziness, sweating then consider visiting an ER for evaluation.
