However every morning as soon as I wake up my heart races, and often is painful and sometimes continues through the day and occasionally a couple of days regardless if I m feeling stressed. I m a 39 year old female and have had some blood pressure issues due to anxiety issues. I m 168cms tall and weight 68kg s

Hello,

Cannot say in your particular case, but generally, everyone can have some skip beats. if they are associated with the heart not working, that would be serious (fainting, organ failure, fluid accumulation).

Mostly in the near 100% of people who sometimes have skip beats, this is not with a serious problem. skip beats are a bit more common with anxiety.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Take care

Regards,
Dr Matt Wachsman, Addiction Medicine Specialist
