Q: my heart rate seems to start beating really fast and hard even after walking a couple of feet. accompanied with occasional chest pain. ?

Chest pain: You don&#x27;t say your age, but anytime I hear of someone who has chest pain accompanied by palpitations, especially with exertion, alarm bells ring in my head. You need to see your doctor immediately, or if you are having more chest pain go to the emergency room. Do not delay. Good luck.
