Hi Martin, sorry you're feeling so scared. This could be a symtom of anxiety as its very common to feel our hearts beating very hard and fast (palpitations) when we are anxious...and the more we panic the faster and harder it beats. Best thing to do is to see what they say at the hospital, whatever it is they will sort it out. Let us know how you get on yes?

Best wishes

Hi Martin, this is something I used to suffer from, fast heartbeats. Even being afraid to go the toilet because that used to put it up.
It sounds like anxiety and that’s what’s making you feel weak and causing the pins and needles, when the palps come. Are their any chest pains?
I would recommended a trip to the docs or the local hospital just to put your mind at rest. Also if you smoke or take nicotine, that will cause your heart rate to rocket when anxious.
