You are still young Billy. I would suggest getting a second opinion. I am not in the medical field but seeing another heart specialist I am sure would relieve apprehension.
You are pretty much doing everything right with getting lots of exercise. I am also 5'10" but weigh 173 lbs and at age 69 have high blood pressure but take pills for it. My cholesterol is borderline but I turned down cholesterol pills at my last medical. Would losing a few pounds help you and eliminate the heart skip? I would get advice asap.
In terms of cholesterol I am well aware as I am married to a dietician. Eats lots of fruit and vegetables. Cut down on the read meat. Mediterranean diet is good.
Cheers, Guy
