Hi, Thanks for using HCM.
Irregular heart beat could be due to arrhythmias, Problem with conduction system in heart(heart blocks)
Get ECG test done which is helpful in detection of heart blocks
Holter monitoring of heart for 24hr duration is more useful in detecting missed beats.
Treatment depends on your condition.
Consult doctor and get through examination done.
Hope this helps you.
Regards
