What Causes Pressure In Heart And Stopping Of Heart Beats?
My boyfriend has a heart problem. But we don't know what it is. When he gets too stressed out his chest feels like it will explode but then his heart will stop. His heart stops for at least 30 seconds. But then it'll start up again. He'll gasp and breathe again. What is it

Hi,
From your description, most likely he has some kind of arrhythmia, which caused premature heart contractions.

Wishing your boyfriend a good health
