I have all the signs of anemia, but i'm worried about my heart palpitations.i do have gastritis, how does that make anemia more likely to be present?

More info is needed: Unless your heart palpitations have been evaluated by a cardiologist, you must do this first! gastritis and anemia may be treated as well, but concentrate on your heart issue first. Stress may also contribute to palpitations. Good luck!

Stressor: Gastritis , menstruation , hemorrhoids etc can cause blood loss and chronic anemia . This is a stressor on the heart. The heart senses the blood loss with not only volume loss but blood carries oxygen too. So the heart try's to circulate the blood it does have as quickly as possible .This can precipitate an arrhythmia
