A member asked:
Why would you feel breathless and have heart palpitations?
5 doctors weighed in across 2 answers
Many reasons: There are many reasons for palpitations and breathlessness. A benign reason would include anxiety and panic attack. A more serious reason would include a rapid arrhythmia which can produce identical symptoms. A visit with a cardiologist would be able to sort this out.

Lottsa: Reasons. See a good internist for evaluation: a stress test & event recorder may settle the issue after appropriate blood tests are ordered. See my book "maximum healing" www.Thepmc.Org.
