Hi, about 15 minutes ago, I had a sudden rapid heart beating. It was very loud, and very vibrant. I could feel it in my head and jaw. I quickly ran upstairs and laid on the floor. I had a blackout for a fraction of a second, but the palpitations did not slow down. It lasted for 4-5 minutes and then it jerked to a stop, then it started beating normal again. Now, I am feeling chest pain, suffocation and numbness in my right arm. Right arm feels heavy to lift and type with. Please help. Thanks.
these symptoms are of ischemic heart disease. Reduced blood supply to heart causes rapid beating heart, and it took 4-5 minutes to subside, pretty long time. Following there is chest pain, so you need to see the doctor in emergency. Get your EKG with cardiac enzymes done and consult the doctor urgently. Few medicines like nitrate, aspirin and cholesterol lowering agents will give you immediate relief.
