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.
Why Does My Heart Pause After Beating Three Times?
My heart beats three times and then pauses. It generally does this for a few cycles and does take my breath away. I am a 45 year old male, 6'1 245 lbs in generally good health. I was taking cyclobenzaprine for 4 months and then stopped for two months and then started it again. Could this be the cause? If not, what else could it be?
hello,I have gone through your query.Thanks for using HCM.Actually cyclibenzaprine is known to produce irregular heart beats.so first you must stop it in consultation with your treating doctor. he will give you replacement to you.after stopping it if your symptoms continue ,you should consult physician and get an ECG done.this will guide about pattern of irregular beats and guids for possible need of medicines. My best wishes Dr.Rajesh Teli,MD
