What Causes Heart Racing, Lightheadedness, Dizziness And Sweating?

Today at work I was doing my normal thing and all of the sudden my heart started racing and pounding hard, I felt light headed and dizzy, and I was sweating all over. What could this be? I am a 43 year old female, 5 ft tall and 102 pounds. Overall healthy.

I understand your concern
It could be an anxiety panic vs cardiac arrhythmia.
Please get yourself a check up .Only that can decide whether this is benign or significant

Hope that helps
