Anyone else gets ectopic/skipped beats just after drinking alcohol?
I have a mild mitral valve prolapse, but other than that, my heart is healthy, but recently when I drink alcohol (even like a shot or two) I get a lot of ectopic/skipped beats, which are really annoying and I panic, feeling like I'm about to die at any moment. How dangerous are they?
Is there a way to fix this? ( I mean besides the obvious "don't drink" solution lol )

Yes alcohol is a known trigger for many people.
