my husband has been complaining of an irregular heart pounding which occurs randomly.  it even goes so far at times to pound so hard he feels it in his throat, temples, and anus.  What do you think it could be?  It does not occur during stressful times, it just randomly happens and then goes away.
Hello, I have gone through your query. Thanks for using Chat Doctor. This kind of palpitations may be due to extrasystoles producing irregular heart beats making the patient aware of it. If it does not arise with stress it should be investigated properly. I would suggest you to get an ECG done during the spell of pounding, If it is normal you may need to undergo Holder monitoring to analyze the heart beats for 24 hours, My best wishes Chat Doctor.
