Physical side effects when I skip a dosage

I’m not sure if I should be concerned about my physical side effects when I skip a dosage of 75mg …

Venlafaxine has generally been very good for me, but when I skip a dosage I get strange heart sensations in moments of slight anxiety. It’s a mini feeling of panic that quickly subsides, similar to the feeling in your heart when you slip a bit but don’t fall? I wouldn’t call it skipping a beat, maybe more like flutters or a ‘dropping to the stomach’ sensation. I’m not sure if I should be concerned about these side effects or not, but I rarely experience them anyway because I don’t forget to take a dosage very often.

It’s the only side effect I get when I skip other than heightened anxiety/depression, and the physical manifestations of my anxiety are otherwise never heart-related but nausea-related.
