A member asked:
Is it normal for a 23 year old female to have a heart rate of 149 bpm and breathlessness along with chest pains?
A doctor has provided 1 answer
No: Absolutely not. That's a very fast heart rate. Without knowing more details, I would worry about pulmonary embolism, a pneumothorax, a new heart issue, or a lung problem like asthma. You should seek care right away.
