Detailed Answer:
Hi and thank you for asking!
I read your query and understood your concerns.

What you are experiencing seems to be caused by escaped heart beats (premature cardiac beats).

However in order to definitely confirm that I would recommend to do the following examinations:
- Ecg
- Cardiac echo
- Holter monitoring

Hope this will be of help!
Wish you health!
