Should Be Concerned Over Irregular Heartbeat After Feeling Dizzy?

I was taken to the emergency room. because I was dizzy. many test were performed. They said it could have been inner ear problems. I had a heart monitor on for about 10 hours while I was there. A nurse told me that I had an irregular heartbeat. The doctor never told me that. I went to see my doctor and she said I do but didn't seemed concerned. Should I seek other opinions like a heart Dr.?

Hello,

No I think there is nothing to worry about. All of us have irregular heart beats at times. It is pathological when it exceeds a certain limit. So they have monitored you for ten hours and haven`t noticed something beyond normal. I suggest a more detailed visit to the ear specialist.
