Same. I was having PVCs, which felt like skipped beats, but it's actually a premature contraction (that you sometimes can't feel) that occurs between beats, so there's a compensatory pause, so it feels like there was a skipped beat.
I was having 20,000 a day. I was consuming a shit ton of caffeine (like 600 mg a day), and I quit cold turkey once I noticed the insane PVCs. The PVCs did reduce in the following months, but I still ended up having an ablation to get rid of them.
Maybe if I would have waited longer they would have gone away completely, I don't know.
