Diagnosis?: You need to have a 24 hour monitor (holter) or treadmill stress test to see what your heart is actually doing with exercise. If it's normal rhythm, a simple medication (such as low dose beta blocker) will provide symptomatic relief. If it's a pathological rhythm, it can be addressed appropriately once it's identified.
