Antibiotics and arrhythmias

I have a bicuspid aortic valve and find that every antibiotic I take gives me arrhythmias. Is there an antibiotic that doesn't cause arrhythmias?

I don't seem to have problems with doxycycline, amoxicillin or clindamycin.  Clindamycin destroys my stomach though.  I avoid cipro and zithromax.

I just finished clindamycin having terrible tender stomach sensitive on the outside of stomach and some burping..., can you tell me if this sounds familiar and what you did to correct it....
Go to the doctor. Clindamycin is a high risk for gut issues.
