Zap: This is hard to characterize online. You should get an exam and see a physician. I would recommend and ekg, blood tests and possibly a holter or event monitor to capture your heart rhythm during the episodes. Consideration for arrythmias such as psvt or even anxiety/panic can cause symptoms such as this.
