A member asked:
Exercise at work (heavy lift/stairs) causes my heart to pound/race and i feel dizzy. at home i can lift, do cardio, stretch with normal bp/hr. why??

Work symptoms: The combination of stress and exertion at work may place more stress on your cardiovascular system than exercise during leisure time does. However your work related symptoms are somewhat worrisome and I recommend wearing an outpatient heart monitor for a day or two so that the nature of your heart rhythm during palpitations and dizziness is identified. Serious cardiac dysrhythmias to be ruled out
