Heart racing and shallow breathing

amdealoe

I have been experiencing heart palpitations whenever I lay down at night and also when waking up in the morning. I'm 9 weeks pregnant. Also, I had exercise induced asthma prior to being pregnant and it feels like it is acting up at night. I went to the dr. to get checked, they did an EKG and checked my breathing, they prescribed me a new inhaler... but I have this feeling that I'm just suffering from anxiety. Has anyone else felt this way and does it go away?

Talk to your primary care doc... Anxiety is one thing but this could also be caused by a number of other things including your new asthma medication.  Play it safe, talk to the doc.
