What can cause constant heart palpitations?
Patient's Query
Hello doctor,
I have been experiencing constant heart palpitations, or at least what I think are palpitations. It feels strange in my chest and throat, almost like my heart beats irregularly or more forcefully. This has been happening for as long as I can remember. Sometimes, it occurs randomly, while other times it seems to be triggered by certain activities or emotions. I have not noticed any pain, but it can be unsettling. I do not know if it is something serious, but I would like to understand what is causing it and whether I should be concerned.
Kindly suggest.
Hello,
Welcome to icliniq.com.
I understand your concern.
I am very sorry about your medical condition and I am glad that you are paying attention to changes in your body system. Regarding your symptoms, I believe you have developed an enlarged heart that is encouraging your chest wall causing structural complications like difficulty in breathing, palpitation, chest pain, and discomfort. This could be caused by anemia, thyroid disease, stress, anxiety, frequent caffeine use, or hypertension. Please do an echo and ECG (electrocardiogram) test and reply to me with the result. Please take two tablets of Ibuprofen (Advil) 400 mg (PO) twice for one week, two tablets of Dexamethasone (Neofordex) 4mg (PO) thrice for one week, one tablet of Vasopressin (Vasostrict) 75mg (PO) four times for a week, one tablet of Bisoprolol (Monocor) 5mg (PO) four times for two weeks.
I hope this helps.
Let me know if you have any other concerns.
Thank you.
