Asking For Self, Male 27, Lahore

I was taking vitamin d3 5000iu and vitamin k2 mk7 90mcg 2-3 tablets daily to treat vitamin d deficiency. Now I am having abnormal heart rythms and chest pain. I have read on internet that vitamin k2 mk7 can pull out too much calcium from blood and can have side effect of heart palpitations. I have stopped taking vitamin d3 and vitamin mk7 since a week. heart palpitations are still there. I took cac 1000 and it improved palpitations a bit. should i go for calcium blood test now? can low blood calcium cause heart palpitations? can it also be due to magnesium deficiency?

vitamin k is not recommended to be used over the counter it can precpitate dangerous arrythmias and heart conduction problems.its better to get an ecg during your episode of palpitations and get serum potassium levels.
