A member asked:
I have acid reflux and have developed what is to be believed as svt in my heart. seems to get better when i stop taking reflux meds....any connection?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
May yes or no: If the reflux medication is a proton pump inhibitor it can decrease the amount of magnesium in your blood over time and increase the risk if irregular beats. Usually not svt though. More common for pvc. A little irritation of the lining of the esophagus gives symptoms, more might take then away if it actually burns out your ability to perceive the motion of the heart in the chest.
