Cardiologist,  's  Response
Hello,

Considering the irregular heartbeat, it is necessary for performing some tests in order to investigate the type of cardiac arrhythmia.

In this regard, I would recommend performing these tests:

- complete blood count for anemia
- cardiac ultrasound and a resting ECG
- thyroid hormone levels for thyroid gland dysfunction
- blood electrolytes.

An ambulatory 24-48 hours ECG monitoring is necessary to examine your heart rhythm trends for a prolonged time. You should discuss with your doctor on the above tests.

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

Take care

Regards,
Dr Ilir Sharka, Cardiologist
