What Is The Cause For Irregular Heartbeats And Palpitation With Skipped Beats After An Allergic Reaction To Chemicals?

I was golfing about a year ago and began sneezing unceasingly due to allergic reaction to chemical sprayed on the greens and fairways. I sneezed for at least 2 hours. Later that day or week I began experiencing irregular heartbeats and palpitation with skipped beats...like my heart was out of rhythm. Mostly regularly irregular. It has continued off and on ever since 1 or 2 times a week. Episodes last up to 2 hours. Could you shed any light on this for me? I have not visited a doctor for this.

hi, palpitations due to irregular heart beat can be a symptom of chronic exposure to toxins or an underlying cardiac disease. one exposure is unlikely to produce long term effects. I would recommend you to consult a cardiologist and get examined to rule out any underlying cardiac disease. Hope this helped.
