I recently started having chest tightness and shortness of breath that has worsened and now includes chest pain as well as numerous arrythmias (Supraventricular Tachycardia, Tachycardia, Bradycardia-yes I know they are opposites I have them both, Premature Atrial Contractions, And now Premature Ventricular Contractions). Everything heart related is centered on the electrical circuits of my heart not working properly and getting overexcited. Is there any possibility that Psittacosis could cause this? When I first went to the doctor I had a minor dry cough that is not going away, I simply chalked it up to allergies. Could I have been mistaken and this all be related? I know they say that Psittacosis can cause cardiac issues but they don't specify what problems can occur. Anybody that might be able to help I'd really appreciate it. (I have another appointment Thursday I will be asking then!) Sorry for such a long post...
