heart palpitations with the urge to cough

I get the same symptoms when I have trouble sleeping for days straight sometimes when I don't get enough sleep my heart skips not when I lay down but throughout the day and it makes me cough I went to the doctor and they hook me up to a EKG machine and nothing happened the second that she pulled the plugs off my heart skips or wasn't recorded. They subscribe me Xanax to help me sleep but I never took it because I didn't like the way it felt when I would go to sleep for 5 minutes it seemed but wake up 6 hours later it was like I was losing time. Never got any help to fix my heart problems I just got more sleep and it subsided temporarily but every so often when I lack sleep at night it comes back.

I have this combined issue too. I also noticed alcohol makes it worse. I will try some carb to see if it helps.

Same symptoms as most on the thread. Every day now for two weeks straight. Coughing like crazy when it’s bad. Feels better lying down. 38yo healthy male.

So what cure or medication you were prescribed, was it heart issue or respiratory track problem

I have the same symptoms and have been to an ENT, cardiologist and a pulmonologist. They've run me through a battery of tests with no results. I'm still coughing. Sometimes, I call it a coughing jag, I cough until I can't get my breath. This is not a common occurence, but the coughing continues. I've had this cough to date, 20 months.
