A member asked:

My heartbeat is so irregular i can't count it! could this be a symptom of a caffeine overdose?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

Atrial fibrillation?: It sounds like you have atrial fibrillation. Without modifying medication, it would usually be in the range of about 170 beats per minute and highly irregular. If you've never had this before, you should go to the ER now to document it and receive initial treatment.
