Palpitations could be a sign for any of a number of problems.
For anything to do with your heart, call NHS Direct or your GP. We're good, but we're not professional medics. :)

Yes. Heart attacks pass just like gas and the sniffles

I've had the exact same thing few years ago, with a few months in between (the stabbing pains when breathing only lasted for a minute or so). Heart raced somewhat, when i took deep breaths it felt like something piercing my chest. I don't know exactly what you mean by "heart beating erratically" tho. Anyway, the condition is gone and i haven't thought about it. If it was just a one time occurrence it is probable to assume nothing serious happened. But, i have no clue if there is such a thing as a "light heart attack".

Yes, it is possible to have a heart attack without noticing. They´re called "silence" or "hidden" heart attacks, at least in german. But since they´re leaving real scars, it´s possible to spot them even years later.

Just go to a doctor and get your heart checked out. Things like the ones you describe can have a variety of causes. Could be a problem with your spine. Also, a shortage of magnesium causes spasmic chest pain in the heart/episternum region.

Sounds like Chest aids. My suggestion is to amputate your left leg, then go masturbate outside in a dark alley

If you ask Dr House M.D. he will tell you its probably an insect in the brain that was contracted due to your partner having an affair with someone who wasnt in the show. Thats after mistreating you a few times and making it worse. Dont worry you will be fine by the end

It's probably your gayness coming through, it usually hits the chest first. Watch some hardcore action movies with awesome pumping muscles of arnie to de gay yourself.

A lot of people tear or sprain the tendons between the ribs. If you keep touching or kneading it because it's slightly tender then that is what it probably is. It's a stabbing pain which comes and goes with exertion, often mistaken for a heart condition.

Best to check with your doctor and if you feel like they are full of BS (they usually are) get a second opinion.

Since he hasn't replied I take it that the heart attack didn't pass..

RIP old man

he was a good man, a quiet man, a man who could make a woman pregnant just by looking at her...

He will be remembered for his random, irrelevant spam, but not missed for it.

Poor taste guys, I know no harm is meant but some of us have lost friends and family recently to heart attacks. I don't mean to be a killjoy or go all carebear but please consider that other people are going through this shit at the moment and can't see the funny side to something that destroys families.

Could be heart or lung problems or gastro

Good luck! Let's hope it's just a troublesome fart that escaped from your colon the wrong way.

I wish it was. Chest feels like someone's sitting on it and sharp pains when I breathe. Had this for over 24 hours so would have to be the mother of all farts if it was wind
