What does it mean when your heart skips beats?

Answer 1

It means you have chronic tachycardia, which is basically an educated-sounding way of saying "often your heart beats fast".

If you have, or think you have, a medical problem (and tachycardia can be a serious medical problem), see a physician. You can't throw out one symptom on the internet and expect to get a valid diagnosis.
