Cardiologist 's  Response
Hello,

I understand your concern and would explain that your symptoms could be related to a possible cardiac arrhythmia.

For this reason, I recommend performing an ambulatory 24-48 hours ECG monitoring in order to examine your heart rhythm trends for a prolonged time and investigate for possible cardiac arrhythmia.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Ilir Sharka,
