Hi ,
Welcome to HCM ,
first thing is do not panic , stay relax ,
all above discomfort mainly related to your heart beat problem ,
do some basic investigation like EKG , 2D Echo , and 24 hour holter monitoring which monitor your heart rate as well as regularity for 24 hours ,
and basis of report further plan will be decided ,
avoid any form of tobacco use if you are using
avoid alcohol intake if you are taking ,
avoid / limit tea and coffee ,
once again i would like to tell you stay calm , do not panic ,
consult your cardiologist and follow his advice
take care

Hello,
Thanks for writing your query to us.
If it is atrial fibrillation than it should be picked up on ECG. Its is terrible situation when you get this kind of episode. Consult a cardiologist & he will examine you in details. There are many causes for fast heart rate & its associated complaints.
It could be thyroid problem, any valvular heart disease, infection of heart or surrounding area of heart called pericardium, or alcohol intake. There are many causes , but it only possible to identify after examining you. So consult a good cardiologist.
Wish you good health.
