Do you know when your heart will stop beating the time?

It feels like a heart attack , but it s not a panic attack? My chest, mainly my heart area, but some times it feels like the whole chest area, some times hurt really bad. It s random. I only used to get them when I was intoxicated, but I got 2 yesterday, sober, which is really unusual. 2 in a row, so quick, I mean. It feels like a heart attack, and literally leaves me gasping for air. It feels like... my chest/heart is being compressed really bad, but also like, it s exploding? I m not sure. But, nothing helps, I just try not to move or anything cuz that seems to be better than moving, and they can last for 5+ minutes. I m not sure what it is, and it just seems like I m not able to breathe either. Any help? Uhm, I don t think regular chest pain should feel like this. I pretty much double over and fall to the ground when it happens, that s how bad it hurts. I m 16, and my parents won t let me go for stuff they can t tell, you know? Like, if the problem isn t visual, like say, hives , then, they don t want to pay for a doctor . So, I can t just go to the hospital. I m a healty weight and height, just so you know. And, I get heart palphitations and irregular beats. Sometimes it pounds so hard, you can see it, easily. Other times, it speeds up randomly, or slows down, or feels like it stops/skips a beat.

Since last night I ve been having these weird palpitations in my heart. There is a history of heart disease in my family, and many people close to me have suffered from heart attacks. I m only 21 so I don t think I m going to suddenly drop dead or anything like that.. But I don t know what this is. I was so worried last night that I went to the hospital but they didn t take me seriously in anyway, probably because of my age. I m not a hypocondriact or anything like that either!! I rarely if ever go to the DR, let alone the hospital, its just when it comes to my heart its something i take very serioulsy becoz of the family history. The nurse at the hospital told me its Probably normal But I don t see ANYTHING normal with your heart pulpitating every couple of minutes, and espcially if it lasts this long. Does anyone know what this is? And what should I do about it, no one seems to be taking this seriously enough to even check if there is a problem! Thanks in advance. :) Just to sum up exactly what it feels like... I can actually feel my heart beating, it feels heavy and it feels like its skipping a beat then its giving a big thump, and beating irregular, but this only lasts for a few seconds at a time. Thankyou to everyone for answering my question!!! :) I will definetly stop worrying as much and I ll go see my GP, hopefully he can spend some decent time with me, and if he thinks there is anything wrong then maybe I can be put on a monitor or something, my dad has had to do that many times. Thanks for all your advice I really appriciate it. :) I usually get these weird palpitations every few months, once or twice.. I always thought that was normal. But Never this much and all at once! Thats why I was worried! But thankyou all for taking me seriously. :) I will be making an appointment with my DR very soon!
