Suggest Treatment For Rapid Heart Beat And Shortness Of Breath
I have been getting no pain in the chest but rapid heart rate followed by shortness of breath. I am suffering from acid reflux and blood test shows that i have bacteria in my stomach. I am on Amoxicillin, Omeprazole, and Clarithromycin and Enapril (blood pressure med). Can these meds give me the symptoms I am having now or do I have heart issues?
Transient increase in heart beat is quite common and it can happen during anxiety and stressful situation. It is not really a sign of cardiac illness and it will settle by it own.
If you are persistently experience rapid heart beats along with palpitations you can consult a cardiologist and get evaluated.
