Hi,I am Dr. Shanthi.E (General & Family Physician). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
What Causes Breathing Difficulty And Heart Palpitations At Night?
I am suffering with breathing problems and palpitations.. I have had numerous blood tests and a 24hour heart monitor but nothing showing up. Doctors are putting it down to anxiety or panic attacks but am not anxious etc. It gets worse when I am in hot places and has now started waking me up at night
I think you should test even thyroid function. An increase in thyroid hormone levels can cause hyperthyroidism that causes palpations and arrhythmia. Test T3, T4 and TSH.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Take care
Regards,
Dr Olgeta Xhufka , General & Family Physician
