A member asked:

Can migraine cause ectopic heartbeats? (i have vestibular migraine and only get ectopics during phases of dizziness caused by the migraine?

Migraines themselves do not cause ectopic heartbeats. The pain and stress of migraines may cause adrenaline surge, which could cause ectopic heartbeats.

Common migraine headaches can indirectly affect cardiac rhythms, but typically do not provoke directly "ectopic heartbeats". But there is a relationship between paroxysmal atrial fibrillation and Classical Migraine sufferers, and this may include Basilar Migraine which may categorize your variety. Ask your neurologist regarding your particulars.
