I get this at times too, but I have a history of anxiety and panic attacks. It worries me though, please update us on what the doctor tells you.

I was in the hospital for this a few weeks back, my heart rate was around 225, I had to get a shot to bring it down. If it stays up to long it can restrict blood flow to the Baby as well as your organs.  Would recommend going in and.getting it checked out ASAP. I didn't think it was that big of deal until I was rushed into a room and had 15 people staring at me

I have hypothyroidism and when my medicine was too high my heart rate was up and I felt like this. Dunno if that is an issue for you though since you didn't mention it in your post.

Tachycardia. For me it's a pre-exsisting condition before I got pregnant. I know, it's awful. It makes you feel short of breath and exhausted. Since it's not a pre-exsisting condition for you though, I'd get it checked out.
