Palpitations when poorly

I'm on bisoprolol 1.25 once a day for skipped beats. I have had two heart surgeries one fallot tetralogy one for pulmonary valve replacement. Does anyone experience more skipped beats or flutters when they have a cold etc?

Hi Spammy, I don't get colds often and I don't recall if a cold ever brought on a skipped beat (PVC) . What I can tell you are my triggers: Caffeine, black pepper, stress. If anything other than a cold is going on, you should investigate that also.

Regards, Joe
