Your palpitations may be happening due to fluctuating blood pressure or heart rate, which can occur if the doses of your current medications are not fully controlling your symptoms. Low sugar levels, stress, or long gaps between meals may also trigger them. Please speak to your doctor to adjust your treatment and check your heart rhythm.

  1. Medication Effects:

    • Beta-blockers like Metoprolol can sometimes cause or fail to fully control palpitations.

  2. Blood Pressure Control:

    • Your blood pressure reading of 130/90 is borderline high, which might contribute to palpitations.

  3. Heart Rhythm Issues:

    • Palpitations may be due to arrhythmias, requiring evaluation.

  4. Other Factors:

    • Consider electrolyte imbalances, stress, caffeine, or blood sugar fluctuations as potential causes.

Recommendation:

  • Discuss these symptoms with your healthcare provider promptly. They may suggest tests like an ECG or Holter monitor to identify the cause and adjust your treatment if needed.
  • Keep a diary of when palpitations occur and any associated symptoms to assist your doctor.
