Palpitations: Alcohol is cardiac toxic. If a physician evaluated and performed electrocardiograph and you had atrial fibrillation doubt not reporting to many serious sequelae. Dehydration and electrolyte abnormalities low potassium and magnesium can produce extra beats as well. Rehydrate and if persistent see your physician.
