Can Antibiotics Used To Treat Enlargement Of Prostate Cause Heart Palpitations?
I had a prostate sampling at a urologist s office; I became infected, and was treated with heavy duty antibiotics in the hospital for 4 days. A month later, I am having heart palpitations. Tests on prostate samples indicated no cancer, but my prostate still feels enlarged. I am taking Rapaflo. Any relation between the hospitalization/prostate and heart palpitations?

hello,
welcome to HCM,
heart palpitations are most commonly caused as a result of a person being anxious.
it is physiological many times.
pathologically also there are causes for it.
in your case i dont think that it is due to the drugs.
kindly be calm and composed.
dont take much of stress.
Thanks a lot for the query
hope you get well soon
