Heart flutters fast, then slow, and hard to breathe?!
Question: Heart flutters fast, then slow, and hard to breathe?
I should include that I am indeed a hypercondriac. So if I notice something weird about my body, I start to worry, which only makes things worse. Could I be freaking myself out, or something? Please help!
Answers:
Anxiety or Panic attacks.
Perhaps you need extra magnesium as in nuts.

I've had similar symptoms for years, like feeling difficulty getting air; strange fluttering in chest which makes my heart pause then resume, but faster; strange sort of pressure in chest when I stand up or climb stairs, climb down stairs or even just standing still.
I've had multiple tests because of these, including echo cardiogram, EKG and stress test etc.; full labs, and all results came back that I was fine. My doctors came to the conclusion that I have anxiety, and considering my past, and understanding what triggers my symptoms; I would agree with them.
I think it's always safe to check with the doctor if you're not feeling well to see if everything is alright, but it could very well just be anxiety.
Update: I tend to worry a lot too by the way
