What Causes Heart Skipping Beats Causing Urge To Cough?
Sir,
I feel my heart rate either slows then beat faster or it just skips altogether which gives me the urge to cough instantly. This has been happening way too often over the last two days. I have had similar symptoms 3 years ago but it just went away. Recently, before the holidays it just started. Thanks.

Hi there
After going through your query I understand your concern.
i would like to tell that it can be associated with heart rhythm. Urge to cough on missing a beat indicates irregular heart beat that need further evaluation to avoid fetal arrhythmic disorder.
It recommended for you to get done a HOLTER monitoring done for 48 hours and personally consult with a cardiologist for further management.
Hope this will help
Kind Regards
Dr. Navneet Mahajan
