problem breathing, pounding heart,fast beat

Question? Does anyone have pounding heart beat everyday and fast beat everyday.I have it everyday and it's really getting to me. And sometimes i feel like i'm not breathing. I had 2 EKG's done .normal.But sometimes i feel like it's not normal..Because i have that pounding everday maybe there is something wrong with my heart. I feel like it's gonna stop all of a sudden because of the everday fast beat. Anyone going through this or is it just me? Thanks

I get heart PVCs too! It feels like a stop a pause then a real hard beat! Sometimes it is scary like your heart will not start again. The recovery beat after the skip sometimes hurts like it hits my ribs with force. I can hear these hard thuds in a quiet room. and can see them too! I though have always had a strong visible heart. My heart has always been strong and powerful and visible! I am an athletic man'6' tall 210 lbs. I workout do martial arts, am healthy as can be. But my heart beats like a hammer in my chest. I have visible pulsations on my chest and it shakes my whole body. After exercise, you would be able to hear and see it thumping standing next to me. My Dr. says I am healthy as a Tiger and it's just from being athletic. It makes a large muscular heart.
Is your heart visible when it does this?

Thank you for listening. I know i should just relax but sometimes it's hard to just float with it. The last time i saw my doctor was in Feb-09. They did all kinds of test.What i really want done is a MRI but i don't have that kind of insurance since i'm not working right now.Got laid off  in July-08. Can't afford therapist. Well it's nice to know i'm not alone.Thanks guys.

YES...YES and Yes!  Those are classic symptoms of panic/anxiety.  You will see you are not alone.  Sometimes when you get a really bad one feels like you are coming out of your skin and you just cannot focus or sit still.  We all have different experiences, but the feeling of having a heart attack is a huge sign.  Since you had an EKG, you know and can relax knowing it is not your heart.  

Are you seeing a professional in the medical field?
