I'm experiencing these palpitations alongside some gas. Could this be related to my heart or are the palpitations just caused by the gas? I was wondering if it's necessary to get an ECG. Could you give me some guidance on this?

Palpitations and gas can be caused by various factors, including heart issues and gastrointestinal problems. To address palpitations, it is important to rule out any underlying heart conditions. I recommend you consult with a cardiologist for further evaluation and to consider an ECG to assess your heart's electrical activity. For gas relief, you can try over-the-counter medications like Simethicone (Gas-X) to help alleviate symptoms.

It may take a few weeks for the medication to fully regulate your heart rate. It is important to continue taking the medication as prescribed and follow up with your doctor for any concerns or adjustments to the treatment plan.

I'm 32 years old and recently found out from my echo scan that I have grade 1 diastolic dysfunction.
