I've been dealing with antral gastritis and duodenitis for about 8 months now, and sometimes I get this weird sensation like my heart is skipping a beat. Is that something I should be worried about, or is it normal with these conditions?
Answered by 1 Apollo Doctors
Antral gastritis and duodenitis can cause discomfort and stress, which can, in turn, lead to sensations of skipped heartbeats or palpitations. This is because the vagus nerve, which runs from the brain to the abdomen, can be irritated, causing changes in heart rhythm. While these sensations can be alarming, they are often benign. However, it's important to rule out any cardiac issues, especially if the sensations are persistent or accompanied by other symptoms like chest pain or shortness of breath. Consult with your healthcare provider to ensure proper management of your gastrointestinal condition and to discuss your heart rhythm concerns.

I've also been dealing with a lot of post-nasal drip and burping, plus this odd flapping sensation on the left side of my abdomen. Do you have any idea what could be going on?
