If your arrhythmias worsen with exercise this is a poor prognostication for outcomes. I would get checked for unstable angina, possible coronary artery disease. Seems like a higher probability for sudden death. YMMV

Oh good Lord. Relax. Plenty of skipped heart beats. I’ve been cardioverted twice and have had two open heart surgeries. I’ve paid my dues.No, idiot. People can faint from a skipped heartbeat and not know if they are hurt. Best you learn about skipped heartbeats, for it can be a dangerous heart condition. Never joke here about the heart conditions and when they get hurt. Passing out for a skipped heart and hitting to forehead is a very serious matter.
its always good to check the ingredients in small letters!… Then I cam across some people reporting palpitations or racing heart from whey protein. The light bulb went off, I had just started a new protein powder that I take before workouts. I was using the same protein for years, but GNC dropped the old SKU and reformulated it. It seemed to line up to the time I noticed the palpitations. So I stopped the protein and within a day I have had maybe 1 palpitation that I noticed in the last 5 days. My EKG has been clean and I check it all the time. Wish they would regulate all the damn vitamins and supplements.
Sorry but why did you bash me? Skipped heart beats is nothing to joke about.Oh good Lord. Relax. Plenty of skipped heart beats. I’ve been cardioverted twice and have had two open heart surgeries. I’ve paid my dues.

So interesting that you had your TAVR procedure exactly one day after I had mine! I feel so fortunate that I haven’t any history of palpitations or heartbeat irregularities and I hope that your erascible beat situation will ultimately evaporate. My new valve did not initially open properly and showed some regurgitation at my post-op appointment. A few weeks ago the surgeon did a TEE procedure and determined that the valve had corrected itself. That kind of blew me away but since everyone says not to waste time worrying about it.Very Interested in this discussion. I am 88 and have had irregular heartbeat since 22 but flight surgeon gave me a permeant waiver for flight status and had 27 year active duty career. April 1 I had TAVER valve and that went very well. First of May I went to my son's home in Las Vegas for swimming and did not do as well as expected. Lots of fatigue and after10 days work up with HR of 40. This HR is where it was 8 years ago when I got my first Pacemaker!! So my son checked and still 40 on his cuff so we headed over to VA hospital. They went into action with full testing and when they put me on EKG machine it was suddenly 78! I was low on potassium and they infused me and read my pacemaker for St. Judes and St. Judes came back that pacer was OK. So doctor explained how heart rate was measured with two beats one for each upper and lower chamber and call this palpitations and released me. I have no symptoms of palpitations.
Today I started cardio rehab at local hospital and they had same 40 HR with their cuff machine but 70 when hooked up on EKG monitor. Did both bike and treadmill fine for first day.
I see the VA cardiology people later in week for checkup. I there any treatment for this half heart rate like medication or is it something to live with and anytime in future when encountering a new nurse just say I have half heartbeat??????
I guess there is a connection with palpitations and irregular heart beat like they are same or similar.
Palpitations are all new to me after having irregular heart beat for almost 70 years.

Bzam: I forgot to mention in my earlier reply that my late husband was a Navy pilot - he totally loved his job.So interesting that you had your TAVR procedure exactly one day after I had mine!
