I am a 29 year old female. Since my early twenties, I have had problems with my heart speeding up very rapidly during exercise. For example, when I am at the gym, the machines that have heart rate monitors are unable to track my heart rate after only a few minutes. While on the machine, I will watch my heart rate surge from normal to above the recommended rate in one or two minutes and then after that, the machines cannot register my heart rate at all. Also, when I manually monitor my heart rate (taking a pulse count with my fingers) I am always way above the recommended rate within only a few minutes. Another symptom I have is that I am extremely tired for about two days after one thirty-minute work out. I have mentioned this to my doctor, but he didn't seem concerned...and didn't really ask me any more questions. Should I be concerned? What could be causing this?
