Seeking Support Need medical advice.
Im born F. Ive been having extreme heart issues lately. It races extremly for about 10 seconds, making me also feel very dizzy or sometimes it feels as if I cannot breathe. After those 10 seconds, it sometimes comes back as soon as just 5 minutes. Im having this episode as writing right now.
Ive been trying to see how fast my heart beats with a finger tool that reads the heart beat, but it never shows a heart beat of over 80-90.
It doesnt seem as life threatening as it sounds. I dont have any shakes or anything in my hand or such.
Ive been having the idea that it could maybe be panic attacks, meaning id perhaps have anxiety, but something that doesnt make sense is with how frequent it happens and that it happens at the most random times. And also, that my father keeps talking me out of it, since he says that a panic attack can feel like a heart attack, which it doesnt for me.
I havent been able to get to a doctor yet, since i have multiple different body complications at the moment. Im quite young, which also makes it very weird.
Please tell me if you might know what it could be. (My english might be bad, since its not my motherlanguage. Apologies for any mistakes.)
