What Is The Cause Of Irregular Heart Beat?

I have been experiencing skips in my heart beat. I have been sick with allergies and starting seeing a specialist. I have taken several doses of steroids in the last three months. It mostly happens at night, but have noticed it in the day time also. Should I see a heart doctor?
