Hello!

Welcome and thank you for asking on HCM!

I passed carefully through your question and would explain that irregular heart beat could be related to different possible causes: a cardiac arrhythmia, drug adverse effects, chronic anemia, thyroid dysfunction, etc..

Coming to this point, I would recommend consulting with your doctor and performing some tests to investigate for the possible underlying causes:

- a chest X ray study
- a cardiac ultrasound and a resting ECG
- an ambulatory 24-48 hours ECG monitoring to investigate for possible cardiac arrhythmia
- complete blood count for anemia
- thyroid hormone levels for thyroid gland dysfunction
- blood electrolytes.

If all the above tests result normal, there is nothing to worry about.

You should discuss with your doctor on the above tests.

Hope to have been helpful!

Wishing good health,

Dr. Iliri
