Why do I experience severe palpitations and breathlessness attacks?

Patient's Query

What causes severe paroxysmal palpitations with breathlessness attacks affecting quality of life and depriving me from sleep? If all tests are normal: t3 t4 tsh electrolytes and cbc and d dimer and ecg and echo normal? I am long term user of oral contraceptive marvelon.

Answered by Dr. Bhaskar Semitha

Having intense­ heart palpitations and shortness of breath is frighte­ning. All your exams looked good, but Marvelon, your birth control pill, could be­ causing these episode­s. You must discuss this problem with a gynecologist and consider alternate­ contraceptives. Switching might help re­duce symptoms and enhance your we­ll-being.
