What Causes Irregular Breathing Pattern, Skipped Heart Beat And Headache?

Hi, about an hour and a half ago I noticed my breathing felt weird when i went to lay down for bed, and when I put my finger on my neck to feel like pulse there s a beat that just feels like a pause or stop. I counted my beats and it s still around the 70s, but I m having a headache and some pressure on the right side of my chest and I m just a little worried about going to sleep with this happening

Hi.

If the pulse seems fine it should most probably be a non-cardiac cause and if it worries you are is getting you anxious then report to an ER, but the most likely cause could be either gastric or a respiratory cause either related to anxiety or a respiratory condition.

Best wishes.
