A member asked:
I cough first, but then i feel something in my heart like a random heartbeat, sometimes it's the cause of my cough, is this normal?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
Likely normal: Occasionally the heart can have an extra beat or series of beats that can cause the symptoms you describe. In most cases it's totally benign. If you drink a lot of caffeine, sleep poorly or are under stress it can make it more frequent. If you are concerned then a doctor visit makes sense.
