See your doc: If you having palpitations/rapid heart rate and trouble breathing you need to be evaluated by your doctor. It's isn't likely related to too high and iron supplement intake, unless you are having some atypical allergic reaction. But it could be sign of something else going on, like a worsening anemia or primary cardiac issues.
