Hi,I am Dr. Prabhakar Koregol (Cardiologist). I will be looking into your question and guiding you through the process. Please write your question below.
My heart skips and then thumps on an average of every 30th beat. Sometimes the interval is much longer or less than ten beats. I have MS and hypothyroidism. I am on meds for both, the thyroid for over a year and the arrhythmia has only started a few months ago.
I passed carefully through your question and would explain that your symptoms could be related to thyroidhormone imbalance.
For this reason, I would recommend first checking your thyroid hormone levels in order to make the proper adjustments to your therapy if necessary.I would also recommend performing an ambulatory 24-48 hours ECG monitoring to check for possible cardiac arrhythmia.
Hope I have answered your query.
Let me know if I can assist you further.
