What Causes Palpitations And Shortness Of Breath While Treating Scarlet Fever?

I have had a bad bout of Scarlett Fever, I was given antibiotics and about a week into them, while my general conditions improved, I started to have a fluttery sensation on my chest and I end up short of breath and I feel like my asthma has gone worse. I am still taking my brown inhaler but I have needed the blue one much more often.

Hello,

It is necessary consulting with your attending physician for a physical exam. Your situation could be related to an allergic reaction to the antibiotics or the infection. You may need to take an anti-allergy drug.

Take care. Hope I have answered your question. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
