Detailed Answer:
Hello!

Welcome on Ask a Doctor Service!

I understand your concern and would explain that some ectopic heart beats are quite normal in every healthy individual.

Anyway, I would recommend performing an ambulatory 24-48hours ECG monitoring in order to examine your heart rhythm trends for a prolonged period of time!

Some blood lab tests are necessary too:
- complete blood count for anemia
- thyroid hormone levels for thyroid gland dysfunction
- blood electrolytes for electrolyte imbalances.

Hope you will find this answer helpful!

Kind regards,
