Recently i have been having palpitations accompanied by breathing difficulty and some minor chest pain which feels more tight than painful.

The doctor has put me on beta blockers to slow it down and took some blood and i have an appointment Friday to see what the test results say.

Does anyone have any similar experiences and could tell it could be something simple and harmless that's easily treated?

I cant even do the school drop off and pick up without getting out of breath and feeling hot and bothered and its really interrupting life at the moment. Ahh i just want to be healthy again!!

Could it be stress sleepy?
Your symptoms can be symptoms of stress.
Sometimes the only reason I know I'm stressed or anxious is by the tightness in my chest and breathlessness.

Im sure the GP will get to the bottom of it though. Good luck.
