What Causes Severe Heart Palpitations While Resting?

Following causes to heart palpitations at resting...
Detailed Answer:
Hi,
I have gone through your medical history carefully and understood your concerns.
1. There are various causes to heart palpitations in your case:
- hormonal changes due to HRT you are currently taking
- changes in blood sugar levels as long as bp is ok and heart rate at resting is ok too
- nicotine patch
2. Before surgery, the doctor will evaluate your overall health condition:
- blood sugar levels
- hormonal balance
- reevaluate the use of nicotine patch (consider taking it off)
- complete blood count to rule out anemia
- cardiac tests : ECG, holter monitoring and echocardiogram
After this evaluation, they will decide for the surgery.
All the best!
Dr.Albana
