MEDiscuss • Heart Diseases • Skipped Beats

I've been experiencing my heart skipping beats fairly regularly for 2 days. I started taking 3600 mg of magnesium pr/day,1600 mg of potassium pr/day, and extra minerals with Boron.I'm hoping it's a deficiency but I'm not sure how long I should wait for these supplements to work. I'm 55 and in great health but now I'm worrying about further problems. I would greatly appreciate any advice from someone more knowledgeable.

I hope you have not just waited with just supplements! It could have been a feature of heart disease at your age. Please do get checked soon if you haven't yet. You will need an ECG and later a stress ECG (treadmill test) if necessary.

No need to take any risk regarding heart disease. Just have a check-up from your doctor.
