Yes I have an irregular heartbeat and am being treated by a cardiologist for this condition. It can be brought on by various things such as other medication you may be on or maybe your weight. Not too worry my cardiologist says that this isn't a life threatening thing, its just very uncomfortable and extremely scary when it happens.

yes, and i know it feels very uncomfortable when it happens too. It is called tachycardia. It is when ur heart has irregular beating patterns. I was about 6 years old when it happened to me. I remeber it all like yesterday. I was standing in the lunch line at school when all of a sudden i started sweating and feeling a little shaky but most of all my heart was beating as if i was running a marathon. I remember the school nurse couldn't believe for such a little girl to have a heart beat beating so fast. I had got it checked out at the hospital and had to wear a halter monitoring my heart beats. To this day i still get them but they don't last that long like they used to. I haven't heard of anyone dying from this but i know it is scary and takes ur breath away.

Yes, I've had it happen. And apparently it runs in my family, because several other family members have also.
There is a surgical procedure that can correct this if it happens often. It's called an ablation. Three of my family members have had this procedure.
You did right going to the hospital and getting it checked out. It's nothing to fool with, and can be very serious. A cardiologist can advise....

Yea sometimes between the trip to the couch or the refrigerator I tend to break a heavy sweat mostly from the testicular area. But once I Get back on my *** and begin consuming hamburgers everything usually goes back to normal. I think a good way to avoid this is not doing anything. Just do what I do, get so fat you become a burden of the state, and watch jerry springer reruns.
