Okay, so i've started getting serious palpitations, like butterflies fluttering in my chest. It's one of the scariest things i've ever experienced. Every time I get it it comes randomly out of the blue and I end up feeling sick and like i'm about to faint and panicking like heck. I don't know if what i'm having is a panic attack or if there's something physically wrong with me? Last night was so bad I almost ended up in A&E. After the fluttering and panicking I usually end up with uncontrollable, violent body shakes, probably caused by adrenaline I should think.
I went to the doctor today and she's going to do blood tests and an ECG but she thinks it could be panic attacks i'm having as i've been under stress lately. I always assumed panic attacks meant breathlessness and chest pain. Has anyone had anything similar to what i've described? I am really worried.
thanks in advance xx
