A member asked:

So this happens randomly . feels like a kick in the chest it takes my breath . feels like my heart is trying to stop. literally makes me gasp for air . some times its just one or 3 in a row kinda feels like my heart is spasming.what is it?

A doctor has provided 1 answer

These may be premature heart beats ( extrasystoles) causing palpitations. They don't cause pain but can produce those symptoms you're experiencing. Wearing a heart monitor for 48 hours or longer will demonstrate extrasystoles&determine the type,their frequency,significance& whether they coincide with your symptoms as you'll note on the diary when you experience symptoms. MD can order one for you
