I started getting anxiety attacks about a year ago. Basically it kind of feels like my breath is caught in my throat and my heart races and sometimes feels like it skips a beat. Usually brought on by nothing at all. I still went for an EKG just to be on the safe side, so even if it is just a panic attack you should still consult with your doctor.
