My son has cold urticaria w/ anaphylaxis. he has started having irregular heartbeats with some (non anaphylactic) reactions. what is causing this?

Dr. Lori Semel answered

Specializes in Pediatrics

Irregular heartbeats: Tachycardia and irregular heartbeat are classic symptoms of cold urticaria. I would bring him to see a cardiologist (pediatric) to be on the safe side and be sure there is no underlying heart disease.

Dr Fricke and another doctor agreed
