Brief Answer:
It's due to Viagra effects...

Detailed Answer:
Hi there,

If viagra caused abnormal heart rhythm, then, it is your body reaction to the effects of this drug. It should be taken as a signal from your body that cannot tolerate its effects, so, better to avoid using it. It is great that no heart problem was seen in your EKG and stress test.

I suggest to consult with your physician about using viagra in future and in what dosage.
