Feeling Like Losing Breath And Uncomfortable Feeling In Chest. What To Do?
I am loosing breath, but it is a weird feeling, my chest feelings like it is pounding and I have this thumping feeling which feels like I don't get enough air, I don't know how to explain it, I have had it since last Friday, it comes and goes during the day but I notice it more when I get home from work. Any ideas? Thankyou.

You are probably suffering from arrhythmias and hence this feeling of pounding heart. What you should do is that you should see a cardiologist and get your heart evaluated.
It can be also due to anxiety and stress that you may feel so intermittently however to put it to such a thing requires a careful ruling out of other diseases
