Hi,I am Dr. Amitkumar Sharma (Internal Medicine Specialist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Hi Dr. I ve just recovered from mild food poisoning that started early Sunday morning after reheating some take away food from the night before. I was sick at bout 1am until 5am after which I rested and went into work about 2pm(I work in the middle east and work Sundays) I have not been sick since 5am on Sunday but still feel a bit off however my main worry is every so often my chest starts to flutter for a few minutes (I ve done a bit of internet research and it sounds like these are heart palpitations) Should I worry or is this just a result of the food poisoning (the reheated food was a mutton curry with rice). Many thanks Andrew

Infectious Diseases Specialist, Dr. Arun's Response
Hello, Thank you for your contact to healthcare magic. I understand your health concern, if I am your doctor I suggest you to check for your blood pressure. Because of diarrhoea and vomiting associated with it there is probability of dehydration and low blood pressure. Because of it heart beats faster for which you feel palpitation.
I will be happy to answer all your future concern. Thank you, Dr Arun Tank Infectious disease specialist. Wish you a best health at health care magic.
