heart palpitation

[neha12345]

My boyfriend is 28 years old and two years back he started having heart palpitation. He used to feel that something is moving behind he's eyes and his heart is beating irregularly. Doctors just mentioned he has a slight disfunction of heart valves and that no specific treatment is available for it. He keeps having palpitation on a regular basis sometimes ignorable and sometimes he feels uneasy.
doctor has just put him on anti anxiety tab since last two years. We are having very stressful life for last 2 months and last 1 week has been particularly very stressful due to personal reasons. He hasn't been able to sleep properly and stays very stressed. Today while coming back home he felt dizzy and said he felt brown spots infront of his both eyes and couldn't see things clearly thou he didn't loose complete conciousness. After resting at home he felt better but again he had the same feeling of spots infront of both eyes and the feeling passed away again in sometime. I am very tensed with this instance. Please advice what could be the reason of this happening and also please advise which specialist should we refer too or if any test need to be taken. Please reply at the earliest. Thank You.

Unfortunately, it is impossible to make an accurate diagnosis just by description of symptoms alone -- palpitations, dizziness, visual disturbances.  However, if he continues to experience palpitations with symptoms, it would not be unreasonable to undergo further testing by your physician to ascertain the etiology. Palpitations/abnormal heart rhythms can be evaluated very easily by non-invasive testing such as an EKG and/or cardiac monitoring -- such as holter monitor, etc. A full history and physical examination should also be performed under the practice of a licensed physician. He/she may want further testing such as blood work to complete the testing. However, if he is experiencing worsening symptoms and/or having problems with fainting, it may be indicated to be seen/evaluated sooner and would not hesitate to going to an ER.
