I have not had that type of experience.

What I usually experiance is Ectopic heartbeats due to over indulging in food(some times spicy food) and sometime with a little bit of alcohol.

Because I have had heart surgery to repair my TOF, my heartbeat feels like it changes gears when I start to exercise.

What I have experianced multiple times is a few fast beats, also when I’m not excersising. It felt like a few fast beats, about 3 to 6 very fast and then normal again.

I have learned to believe my doctor when he has told me Ectopic heartbeats are benign, but also have learned to listen to my heart and body.

Thank you for the comment.
