Sudden irregular heart beats and shortness of breath.?!
Question: Sudden irregular heart beats and shortness of breath!.!?
I'm 14 years old, about 107 lbs!. and a normal diet!. For the past couple of weeks, about 2-3 times a day, my heart will start beating really rapidly and I can feel it in my chest beating!. When this happens, it's kind of hard for me to breath until it's over!. They hadn't been that bad until today when I was walking around in Target and all of a sudden my heart started to beat weird and I couldn't breath!. It lasted only a couple seconds but it was worse than the others!. I do not do anything that could cause this like running or moving a lot!. I don't have any known conditions or anything!. After it happens, my heart beats funny for a couple minutes but that eventually goes away!.
Is this anything I should be worried about!? Should I go to the doctor now or wait and see how it turns out!?
