Hi,I am Dr. Prabhakar Koregol (Cardiologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
Is It Due To Anxiety There Is Heart Palpitations And Belching?
I have been having heart palpatations and some belching. had a EKG and saw a cardiologist who felt it was anxiety. I lost my best friend of 26 yrs this past year and also went through a divorce. I started taking pepcid ac and that has pretty much taken away the palpatations and I have been walking 20 min a day. Just hope this is not heart related.
