Last night while me and my partner were getting naughty! My heart suddenly started jumping in my chest and i developed a pins and needles type feeling in my chest, around my mouth and in my hands. My hands clawed up and couldnt straighten them for ages. The feeling lasted about 20/30 mins and it scared me. What could this be? Ive checked on low blood pressure, hyperventilation, and panic attacks but the symptoms dont match. This has happened on about 4 seperate occasions in the past 5 years.

Angina, shortness of breath, and palpitations are problems associated with heart conditions, and, although they may not be deadly, they can certainly put a crimp in your sex life. Very often these symptoms show up after you've had an orgasm, during the period that your heartbeat is on its way down. Now, if every time you have an orgasm you get an angina attack, which is a sharp pain in the chest area, then that's not going to improve your desire for sex, is it? Here, again, you should consult with your physician or cardiologist. Don't be ashamed to ask specific questions. Your doctor may have suggestions that can help you have a relatively normal sex life, and you have every right to find out.
What can you do?
Here are some specific tips that may help you if you have heart trouble.
If you have a heart condition, don't engage in sexual activity when you're angry or under a lot of stress. At these times, the heart is already beating faster, and sex would only tax its abilities even more.
See if one of the new drugs like calcium channel blockers or beta-blockers can be prescribed for you. These drugs can make sex easier on your heart.
Some heart patients decide for themselves to take their medication, like propranolol (Inderal) or nitroglycerin, before having sex, thinking that they can prevent heart troubles. Do not attempt such techniques without first checking with your physician. (Propranolol is used on a schedule, so taking it out of schedule could be risky.)
The medications that are prescribed for heart conditions, such as beta-blockers, antihypertensives, and diuretics, can cause sexual functioning problems of their own. Sometimes your doctor can prescribe alternative medicines that will still be effective without getting in the way of your sexual functioning, so ask questions of your cardiologist

I agree with nemesis - could be symptoms of heart problems - but may also be muscle cramps - best to get it checked to be on the safe side.

This sounds like clots. Are you on aspirin, perhaps you should be. Get it checked out by the doctor.

This needs to be investigated by your Doctor - go to see him as soon as possible.
This type of condition is too complicated to be answered on here.
Good Luck.
