skipped heart beats, diagnosis of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy

Does anyone have experience with skipped heart beats related to a diagnosis of hypertrophic cardiomyopathy?

I hope your are under the care of a cardiologist, your post says you have a medical diagnosis, this isn't some self-diagnosis.  

From the little I know, I think skipped heart beats may be common.  Have you tried a post on the heart disease community?

I have HOCM and experience skipped beats from it.

Yes irregular heart beats are common in HCM. You should be followed by a cardiologist that knows about this disease as it can be rare. You should have an EP Study done to check out the electrical systems of the heart. Sudden death can occur due to arrhythmias combined with this disease, but that is rare, about 2%.
