health concern? Heart rate increased suddenly and stayed for hours!
Hello i'm 19/f and yesterday during work all of a sudden my heart rate increased and it was like this for a couple hours. It was like i just ran a 5 mile run. I couldnt get it to slow down, then after about an hour into it my boss told me to take aspirin thinking maybe that would help and i think it did a little bit but it didnt eventually calm down until a few hours later. I took my break thinking maybe that would help but as i was eating my food it still continued to pound. I've only had this a few other times but it always went away within 20 min. Then i started to get a little light headed and the right side of my back started to hurt. My muscles have been achy and i've been tired but not more than usual. Nothing has been stressing me out either it just came on all of a sudden. I do drink soda but i only had one can of soda that day. Can anybody give me any ideas on what this could be? Thanks

With matters of the heart, it is best to see a doctor. You could have anxiety as a result of not knowing what caused it to happen in the first place. :)
If you have no insurance and can't afford to see a doctor, go to a local health department or clinic. Just do not let it slide.
I am not saying you have a heart condition. There are other things that can cause a rapid heartbeat.
Off the top of my head I am thinking hyperthyroid.
Many different things that we cannot diagnose for you. Please see a doctor ASAP.

I have no clue how to spell this but I am guessing you have a form of ventricular tachycardia (VT). Its not a common thing but I had it when I was a teen. I went to a cardiac specialist and they sent home a heart monitor and the next time it did I just took like a thirty second recording sent it in and they looked at it. Eventually ( not saying you will, its not necessary all the time) but I had heart surgury. It had to deal with an extra something, electrically, in my heart. It wasn't a huge problem just VERY aggravating. I always felt really light headed especially when it would come back down to normal. Somethings that they told me to try that worked the first few times is dumping my head in ice water...weird I know. I would just go to a doctor and have them take a look. Could be something else but this is just what it sounds like from MY past experiences. Message me if you need anything, Take Care.
