A friend of mine was wondering about this.

Answer #1

No, but your blood pressure rises quite significantly.

Answer #2

oh okay thanks!

Answer #3

The pressure in your chest due to sneezing changes your blood flow, which may change the rhythm of your heartbeat

Answer #4

oh okay coolz.

Answer #5

No you’d be having a heart-attack if so. But if it is overly painful when you sneeze, consult a doctor at once.

Answer #6

Well, it doesn’t affect my heart beat.
