What Causes Recurring Increase In Heart Rate With Sharp Pain And Dizziness?

Randomly my heart rate increases while I m relaxing. Sometimes I m at work or even eating. At least 4 to 5 times a day, out of no where. Comes so sudden that it takes my breathe away leaving me with abnormal breathing with a sharp pain near my heart and dizziness. I know I need a see a doctor but what should I say if I was or which test to run?
