Cardiologist Questions Acid reflux

Can acid reflux cause heart palpitations?

My son has had several bouts of acid reflux and he's 9 years old. But now, we noticed that he has heart palpitations alongside it. Could this be due to the reflux?

Palpitations are common and can be caused by many things. However, they are a symptom that is separate from reflux and should be evaluated separately.
No.
