Very true- the old saying "mind over matter" is not just a saying- studies done on cancer patients have shown a much higher recovery rate among people who use positive visualization than those who don't- So if you get stressed out over something ,even with no underlying health problem, it is entirely possible for you to experience "asthma" type symptoms, or heart palpitations, etc. By the same token, it is just as possible to "cure" these symtoms by using relaxation techniques, etc.

How often does this happen?  It's important to take chest pains very seriously, they could be signs of a heart attack or stroke.  Is it hard to breathe?  You should see a doctor ASAP, at least to rule out any heart issues.  I'm a nurse so please take my advice.\nYou'll be okay sweetie.

Of course not! You are not the only one, there are some other people having this kind of trouble in this world. Please try to see a doctor who is an specialist of this arena. He/she will be able to suggest you the most important and accurate things. Best wishes for your good health.

As a cardiac nurse of some thirty years, I am amazed at what men will put up with hoping it isn't their heart.  Dear man, you need to get to a doctor and do it now.

See a doctor and have them check it out.  It's better to be safe than to have your heart just stop one day and collapse while you're "feeling just fine".

You probably have PVCs/PACs, I've had them for a few years and I hate those @@#$@ so much. They feel like an extra beat, flip flop, or fast double beat right? I think its recommended that you be evaluated by a cardiologist to make sure you dont have any heart defects. The vast majority of cases though either just happen for no apparent reason, anxiety/stress related, potassium/calcium/magnesium imbalance in your blood, or a thyroid problem like they were saying. My doc theyre probably anxiety related too and I didn't think I'm anxious either. A lot of people say beta blockers work for them as well and my doc put me on one but it didn't do anything for me. Never tried an antidepressant/anxiety drug but some people say those have helped them, so go for it if you want. Mine seem to be triggered when I'm under stress, drink, dont get enough sleep, or drink too much caffeine. Exercise seems to reduce them for me, but everyone's triggers are different. You can check out the heart forum at medhelp.org a lot of people have them and have all kinds of weird tips and tricks you can try. I think the best thing to do if they really bother you is keep track of what triggers them and then avoid those triggers if practical.

Your lungs had an infection. All the little filters in your lungs picked up something it didnt like. So you HAVE to breathe to stay alive so naturally this will take some time.\nGet checked for allergies also so it wont be triggered again.

See a doctor right away, you have a problem with your lungs.  Could be simple, could be more serious but the sooner you start to fix it the better.

Sounds like panic attack to me.  Same thing happened to me.  Brought on by stress although I didn't feel stressed.  I fyou don't deal with stress properly or productively, then your body will in its own way

no, this is too low of a stimulus or intake if it was to be a cause, you could talk to the doctor for possible causes of the exact heart beat problem, good luck

confused, that is a great name for you, Why are you asking medical questions on Yahoo Answers, if you are having problems breathing then go to the doctor and have him/her check you out, this is not something to fool around with especially if you or someone close to you is a smoker.\n\nDO NOT RELY ON ANSWERS FROM THIS FORUM ON HOW TO CURE OR DIAGNOSE YOUR PROBLEM AS THE WAY TO GO.  see a doctor.

Alright Julie!!  Great answer....!  Although I laughed at the "are you mad" part, the truth is this is for real.  Emotions can play a large part in our pulse rate.  The person with a Type A personality...kinda tense in personality, probably with a job that is tense also, but which this person thrives.....I would like to ask how much caffine you drink?  Are you eating nutritional foods, exercising, do you smoke?  Lots of reasons for increased heart rates...lifestyle can be the biggie!

Chest pains are NEVER something to fool around with. Do you have any idea how many people end up dying from heart attacks because they thing it is indigestion, just like you think, and they delay going to get medical help! Also, did you know that the symptoms of heart attacks in women are much more subtle than those in men? If you are waiting to fall over, it probably won't happen until it is too late. People of ANY age can have heart attacks. If you are overweight, your chances are higher than the general population. People also have mini-strokes and heart attacks that don't kill them, called silent heart attacks, but part of the heart muscle is permanently killed. Is it worth fooling around with the whole rest of your life. You would not take out your own tonsils or let one of us take out your tonsils, but with something as serious as your very life, you are asking rank amateurs. Please go get checked out. Better to be safe than dead.

Yes, respiration does have an affect on heart rhythm. Breathing in is an active process - muscles are contracting and your chest is expanding. Most of the time when you exhale (not exercising or being active), your muscles relax so your heart rate slows.  \n\nIf it bothers you, you might want to get it checked out.

Yes it is, but I am not a doctor, remember this. Now, I have a heart murmer, and I have to watch some things. Stress is alot of the problems on a heart, but so is the lifestyle like smoking, drinkiing, some pills, and even one's thinking. I would suggest a 2nd doctor's opion on this, cause you need to get more help for him. I wish the best to you both, and god bless.

Functional heart murmurs caused by rushing of blood through the valve are very common. I think your symptoms are mental rather than organic.
