Needs eval: The nature of your palpitations should be investigated. Some people have a very forceful heartbeat that they feel in their head. I would avoid herbals for now as some are cardiac stimulants. A 24 hour to 30 day event monitor would be very helpful. Sometimes medications that reduce the forecfulness of contraction (betablockers) are very helpful in this setting, depending on your results.

Possible migraine : Migraine like headache can be caused by a bone spur in the nose. A ct scan of the sinuses is indicated and if the spur is present a septoplasty to remove it is indicated. I provide relief to almost 90% of patients with this problem. Could your palpitations be caused by the pain? Visit my website for more information at www. Kevinsmithmd.Com.
