You need to have the palpitations evaluated by a doctor asap.  If your having all of those symptoms while having the palpitations I would recommend getting to a regular md and if possible a cardiologist just rule out anything serious.  If they are so consistent your dr will have no problem identifying the problem on an EKG.  Good Luck!
