What Causes Irregular Heart Beat And Palpitations With Pins And Needles In Feet?

Hi I ve been having heart palpitations or an irregular heartbeat the last few days, lasts about 10-15 seconds. The last time it happened i had pins and needles in my left foot. I am 24, am a smoker also. Have just had a baby girl so lack of sleep and stress may be a factor. Just wanted to see if it was worth visiting doctor?

Dear friend,
Welcome to Health Care Magic

It certainly is worth visiting the doctor
As you said, stress is most likely… yet it is wiser to see an Internist / get yourself examined / investigation may be necessary... more to exclude any than to confirm..
Prognosis is generally excellent in such situations…      

Take care     
Wishing all well
God bless
