I know many types of heart palpations can be harmless as I get them myself and he is contacting the MD tomarrow, however, I wanted more info.
His come on and last only a few minutes, 1-5 mins. However, he does experience SOB. He is 43, has asthma, however, other then that in very good health. Good weight and runs regularly. As I said, he is going to doc today but I wanted more info now. THanks!

If he is experiencing SOB (shortness of breath), and has h/o asthma, I think let his MD decide, as we don't know on which asthmatic drugs he is/was on, could be due to medication, or some chest infection.
However an EKG & ETT IS A MUST, if his MD feels going for an echo, or HOLTER'S Monitor which will be able to record his 24 hours cardiac status will help him out.
FYI pl.
