My Heart Is Skipping A Beat What Does That Mean?
There has been something wrong with my heart lately. It almost feels like its skipping beats. Sometimes when im laying down it beats fast for no reason at all. Could this be because of my ecstasy use? Should i be worried? Should i lay off the ecstasy until i ask my doctor if im fine or not?

SKIPPING BEATS OR ECTOPIC HEATH BEATS CAN ONLY BE APPRICIATED BY A SPECIALIST WITH HELP OF STHESTESCOPE,SELF REALISATION OF SUCH SENSATION ARE MERELY PSYCHOLOGICAL IN NATURE,MENTAL STRESS AND ANXIETY CAN BE ONE REASON AND IT IS SOMATOFORM DISORDER,IT HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH HEART,STRESS MANAGEMENT AND PSYCHOLOGICAL GUIDENCE IS ADVISIBLE.
