These symptoms are suggestive of underlying conduction disturbances in the heart.these are termed as arrythmias.24hr holter ecg can help to diagnose accurately these disturbances.Anti arrythmic drugs like amiodarone will help.altered taste can be due to drug related side effects.Electrophysiological studies help to identify the discharging focus,;Radiofrequency ablation can help to cure the abberant tracts.I advice 2Dscreeing echo.Consult your cardiologist for further help.
