I have been having Palputations and have had an ECG and a 24hr ECG test both came back OK But at the hairdressers today while having my hair bleached my heart starting beating fast I felt faint and my face and neck when bright red. I felt that I was going to pass out but didnt. Had to keep going to the toilet to pee any ideas ? felt I was going to have a heart attack. Hadn't had a lot to eat (3 pieces of cake ) Could it be panic attack ?

Hi
When my attacks come on i get papulations.. It kinda feels like your having a heart attack, at least that's the way my dr told me.

sherry24 are you very 'aware' of how you feel ? Even noticing small changes in how you feel ? I felt as soon as I had had the bleach removed and knew I would be leaving I started to feel better. I kept thinking that I couldnt "passout" with the bleach in my hair, so do you think it was a panic attack. Im at home now and feel OK. Just a little strange.
