I’ve been dealing with heart palpitations and heart flutters and increased heart rate at night for about 6 months. I know the worst of the pounding heart is due to hormone abnormalities but that’s been addressed, and what’s left is a flutter during some parts of the day, usually after meals and before bed.
I have a feeling something is partly due to keto, maybe low blood sugar or electrolytes. Pretty sure I’m getting enough sodium because I know what the low sodium feels like, headache and brain fog. Could it be low potassium? I’m hesitant to take extra potassium because I’m prescribed 25mg Losartan which prevents potassium excretion.
Maybe I’m just not adapting that well to keto and it’s low blood sugar induced adrenaline? My heart rate goes up a little and there’s a little anxiety with it.
When I went on vacation to Disney, I broke the diet and don’t recall having these symptoms during that period.
Also, too much caffeine seems to make it worse.
Anyone have any thoughts or experience?
