Palpitations, Shortness Of Breath. Why?
I normally speed walk 8kms every morning and this morning, I started getting bad heart palpitations and my legs felt like jelly. Actually felt extremely woozy and thought I was going to pass out. I m generally very healthy, normal weight and eat healthily. It s been a couple of hours since this happened and I still don t feel my normal self. I have a woozy feeling and have a slight shortness of breath.

hi,
you have not mentioned your age and is it you are having any risk factors for CVD like smoking, hyper tension, diabetes.
If yo have this and your getting shortness of breath and palpitations during walking you have to evaluate completely as early as possible.
