4 the past wk, the littlest anxiety causes my heart to arrhythmia-skip beat mult times. diet same, exercise reg for 1 month. on anti-hist. ideas?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Needs eval soon: This could be something not serious like an adverse effect from your antihistamine. But it could also be something very serious. Heart beat irregularities occurring that often or multiple times in a row can be serious. You absolutely need to get into your doctor THIS WEEK to have it evaluated. You need a good exam of heart including rate, blood pressure and EKG, and then go form there. MAKE APPT!!
