Brief Answer:
I would recommend as follows:

Detailed Answer:
Hello,

I understand your concern and would explain that there are many possible cardiac and extracardiac causes that may lead to cardiac arrhythmia.

Possible cardiac causes would be: cardiac ischemia, cardiomyopathy, myocarditis, etc..

Possible extracardiac causes would be: a lung disorder, electrolytes imbalance, thyroid gland dysfunction, anemia, etc.

For this reason, I would recommend performing further tests to investigate on the possible causes:

- a cardiac ultrasound in order to examine the heart structure and function
- a chest Xray study or a chest CT scan
- blood electrolytes for possible imbalance
- complete blood count for anemia
- thyroid hormone levels for possible imbalances.

A cardiac stress MRI would be a more accurate test to examine better the myocardial tissue, heart function and the presence of possible myocardial ischemia.

Hope you will find this information helpful!

I remain at your disposal in case of further questions whenever you need!

Kind regards,

Dr. Ilir Sharka, cardiologist

Hello again!

Thank you for the additional information!

Yes, a cardiac ultrasound would help examine your cardiac structure and function and investigate on possible cardiomyopathy, myocarditis, etc..

A cardiac stress MRI would be a more accurate test to examine the myocardial structure and possible signs of myocardial ischemia.
