heart palpitations from toxins - now high hemoglobin

Hello,

I never had a history of heart issues until trying to treat lyme. While on antibiotics my heart skips beats from the toxins. There are long pauses that make me nervous, then sometimes multiple beats quickly. My heart is overall much lower too not sure why.

My body appears to have compensated for less oxygen with higher hemoglobin (one cause of high hemoglobin is poor heart function according to Mayo clinic). My hemo has for the last five years been at 16.5, and is now "high" at 17.6.

This was caught during a visit to ER for gallstones. I will of course be discussing it with LLMD but wondering why he hasn't been checking my CBC tests.

Just wondering if anyone had their hemoglobin go up on antibiotics.
