I have recently had my blood pressure taken it was 140/102. I am being re-checked on Friday with a Glucose Tolerance Test as well. For several years I have experienced heart palpitations but never really taken any notice of them. Recently however I have experienced high level of stress due to personal problems and have now developed a cough when the palpitations occur, incidently the said palpitations have increased a great deal. My heart seems to be beating quite quickly and when going to sleep I can hear my heart beat quite loudly in my ears. Many thanks
Hello, After going through your medical query I understand your concern and would like to tell you that generally heart palpitations commonly happens because of stress anxiety, deny Chat Doctor.  But cough with any palpitations can be because of underlying heart problems, so it is recommended for you to get an ECG, Echocardiography, Holder and Thyroid Function test done and consult a physician with reports. Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further. Take care
