I have noticed when I get out of a hot shower and relax in my chair for the evening, my heart will miss a beat then beat hard filled with the blood it didn't move before. It will happen more than a few times in an hour. I excersise less than I should, but am active in sports 2-3 times a week. I have been to a Dr and had an EKG and sonigram, everything seemed fine. COuld you provide an explanation?
Q: My heart seems to miss a beat, then beat with more pressure, what causes this?

I am not a doctor, but it might be the mitro valve. You should make an appoitment with a cardiologist and ask he. He might want to do a cardiac catherization as well as a more extensive EKG. They are experts in this field and will be able to answer your questions better. Take care and hope you feel better, Sue

I am not a doctor but a heart patient and it sounds like you may have Miral Valve Prolapse or some othe underlying heart condition. find a cardiologist and make an
appointment to find out why this happens to you.
