Answers:
Those are normally called palpitations or an irregular heart beat. The reason you are out of breath is because the rythym of your heart changes, which causes a change in blood flow. It happens in lots of people and you should only worry if it begins to happen more frequently or if you feel faint when it happens. Health Question & Answer

When it comes to something as important as your heart (or any other major organ), you need to address the problem as soon as possible. Just pop along to your doctor and tell him the problem, it may be something that just needs to be monitored in case you have more seroius problems in the future.Health Question & Answer

My father smokes and had a heart attack without us knowing it for a year. He often said his chest would feel uncomfortable and his shortness of breath was a blind factor because he smokes so much and is VERY out of shape. When he went in for a checkup, the doctor said he had an irregular heartbeat, sent him to a cardiologist and was rushed in for a long overdue quadruple heart bypass. He's fine now, but only because he went in to see the doctor. Make an appointment the second the office opens. Doctors said it was a miracle my dad's still living.

If you are taking diet pills that could happen. If not then do you have alot of caffiene .? Or it could be that you have intense workouts and that is your metabolism. Maybe your age or health has something to do with this, but I'd ask a nurse or doctor.Health Question & Answer
