Every now and then (probably a couple of times a day), I am feeling ok and then I will suddenly feel like my heart is thudding really loud in my chest and beating in my throat and it will make me feel a bit light headed and almost makes me catch my breath. It only lasts a minute or so and then my heart will beat faster for a while afterwards. I 'm not sure if this is just because I am focussing on it then. Then it will be ok again.

I don't ever feel that I am particularly stressed or that I am reacting to anything specific when it happens. It just seems to come out of the blue. Does anyone else have this?
