RU-58841 plus minoxidil, anyone getting heart rate weirdness?

Random thing I wanna throw out there. I've been rotating RU-58841 daily for a few months now, usually at night, and I add minoxidil 5% in the morning since I figured why not stack them. Hair looks better honestly, shedding slowed down way more than RU alone ever did for me.

But the last couple weeks I've had these random episodes where my heart just kinda thumps harder than it should when I'm sitting still. Not racing, just like a noticeable thud thud thud for 10 or 15 minutes and then it goes back to normal. BP reads fine when I check it.

Could be totally unrelated. Ngl I'm also deep in training for a 50 miler so my baseline HR is already all over the place and sleep has been garbage. But RU is supposed to stay topical and not do anything systemic, right? Has anyone else noticed anything like this when stacking the two, or am I just chasing a ghost. Curious if there's a sensible way to rule it in or out without spiraling.
