I HAVE BEEN FEELING REALY WEAK AND I GET THESE ATTACKS LIKE MY HEART PALPATATES UNREGULAR AND I GET DIZZY AND SHORT OF BREATH BUT IT ONLY HAPPENS LIKE FOR 5 TO 30 SECONDS AND THEN IT GOES AWAY BUT IT IS REALLY SCARRY, I WENT TO THE HOSPITAL WHEN IT HAPPENS BUT THEY ONLY TELL MY THAT I HAVE ARYTHMIA AND THAT I HAVE TO GO TO MY CARDIOLOGIST BUT I HAVE AND HE IS ORDERING ME A HOLTER CHEST OR SOMETHING LIKE THAT, BUT I AM REALLY FREAKING OUT WHEN IT HAPPENS SHOULD I BE CONCERN? AND WHAT CAN I DO TO PREVENT THESE ATTACKS..
Answers:    The holter monitor may be able to let your doctor know what is going on when you have these attacks, but I can dispense you some insight. What you are describing is what happened to me for years. I had a holter monitor, but the episode did not occur every year, so it was never captured. Finally, I had an episode that last a couple of hours and went to the ER and learned that I had atrial fibrillation. My father have this condition and it is the most common heart arrythmia. It is not life threatening it's self, but does increase your risk of stroke. Your's could be another type of arrythmia, but if it was enthusiasm threatening, I think they would have done something at the hospital. Just be sure and keep your doctor appointments . Unfortunately, in attendance is nothing that can be done to prevent the attacks, but there are medications that can give support to prevent them.
Well, those symptoms are consistent with cardiac dysrhythmia.
I do think it's something to be concerned roughly, since you present with symptoms. I mean, you wouldn't want to get dizzy and pass by out while driving or even just walking and fall down and hurt yourself.


While you're on the halter, strange as it sounds, you actually do want to hold it happen, so the cardiologist can see what it is.
