What Causes Heart Palpitations And Shortness Of Breath?

Hi. I am 27 years old and female. For the last 3 weeks i have felt my heart pounding through my chest and then up through my neck and then through my head. This is very painfull in my head but only lasts a few seconds then i feel out of breath. Usually when i climb the stairs or bend down to pick something up. I also have a feeling that i can't get enough air into my lungs when i breathe especially when i wake in the morning, and i always wake up with a mild head ache at the front of my head. I have a healthy bmi and go for regular walks every day. Any suggestions on what this could be? Thanks Leanne

Hello and welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.

I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.

Is there any stress, anxiety and panic, do you have heavy menses. Symptoms look like of anemia or anxiety. You get hemoglobin tested and it's normal then you should try tab ciplar LA once a day. You can get this tablet prescribed from local doctor.

Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.

Regards,
Dr. Sagar Makode
