What Causes Heart Palpitations And Flutters?
Hi, I ve had what feels like a few heart palpitations and flutters as of late, mostly tho it s been the sensation of feeling my heart beat. I had my heart checked and everything was normal and my blood test was relatively normal minus high triglycerides and blood sugar (no fear of diabetes though) which could have been from the foods/drinks the night before. I had gotten sick more than a month ago and have had a peristant cough through all this and have a long running history of bronchitis and asthma. Could this all be related to my cough??

Hi
You already have a diagnosis of bronchitis and asthma with cough.
Your pain can be due to cough and respiratory infections
Palpitations and flutter can be can be due to the bronchodilators or nebulisations withbronchodilators
This can lead to variation in electrolytes especially potassium.also leading to palpitations.
