What Causes Palpitations With Chest Pain?

I have heart palpitations and feel weak in my arms and legs a couple times a month. Lately its been happening once a week. Yesterday I was on the elliptical and it started doing this and my chest felt like it was burning and heavy. Should i see a doctor or is this just a normal reaction to stress or something?
