Can Ovarian Cancer Cause Heart Palpitations?
can ovarian cancer cause heart palpitations? Susan 53, 2 sons, 2 miscarriages, partial hysterectomy due to cysts. Cysts off and on on ovaries over the years. I have had gas, bloating, a feeling of fullness on a light meal. Major hot flashes (yes in menopause for 7 years now) and night sweats. Lately I've had an odor in the female area that's not normal for me. Kind of rancid. And I get frequent heart palpitations, that are getting a bit scary. I'm a previous smoker. Quit six months ago.

Post menopausal and anxiety about the illness are two risk factor.
Ovarian cancer per se are not associated with palpitation.
These symtoms to be evaluated by electrophysiologist and holter may be warranted.
