[|Human|] recently I had a couple of episodes of racing heart rate some tingling in my toes and hands, light headness and a bit of nausea. I am a 59 yr old woman in fairly good health with 5-10 lbs of extra weight (always trying to lose) and not on any medications. Occasionally ambient for sleep but on only one or twice a week. Heart disease and stroke run in my family. I thought I might be having a slight stroke, laid down on the floor and breathed deeply for about 10 minutes and then felt fine. Was I not smart to go to the emergency room? Has happened twice in the last 6 months?
[|AI|]  Hi, Thanks for your question. After going through your case there are following possibilities for your symptoms.1) Cardiac arrhythmias: electrical disturbance in heart conduction.2) TIA (Transient Ischemic Attack): Transiently decreased blood supply to brain. As you have two episodes of similar symptoms in last 6 months and there is family history of heart disease and stroke you should not neglect these symptoms. Consult your doctor immediately. You should know other symptoms of heart disease like chest pain, sweating, palpitation, breathing difficulty and stroke like imbalance while walking, tingling or numbness on one side of body, visual or speech disturbances. There may be need for1) Clinical examination.2) To check postural Chat Doctor. 3) ECG & 2DEcho of heart.4) Electrophysiologist study and Holders monitoring.5) Brain imaging like MRI of Brain with angiography. Hope this helps you, if so do vote.
