What Causes Shortness Of Breath With Heart Palpitations?
I had a normal EKG about 2 weeks ago. I have been having shortness of breath pretty much anytime I am moving. It gets better when I sit down and rest. Today I also had heart palpitations. Could it be from the heat, I live in Florida, or should I get something checked?

HI
Well come to HCM
I really appreciate your concern, if the EKG is unremarkable then better to go for ECHO and stress test, the symptoms could be nonspecific some time may be due to some stress, you have not mentioned your age and gender here else something related could be advised hope this information helps.
