Are Severe Heart Arrhythmias Along With Severe Headaches A Life Threatening Condition?

Having severe heart arrhythmias for last few wks. gotten much worse today, am feeling wk. and little worried. Have history of such but it normally goes away. I have a hospital nearby but I have no insurance & not much $ and fear I ll be turned away or die while waiting in E.R. No pain in chest, arm or jaw. Get a very bad headache in back of head when these spells come on. Not sure what to do or if its life threatening-

Hello
Welcome to Ask doctor service
I have reviewed your query, and here is my advice.
Without EKG tracing it is difficult to say anything about the arrhythmia more over it is the medical emergency that demands the immediate medical attention, the symptom that you stated here weak and worried is not indicate the arrhythmia, but it could be due to anxiety and depression, if you want to confirm the arrhythmia then you need to get done the EKG, if this is found there then you have to get in hospital for proper treatment, type of arrhythmia matters here.
Hope I have answered your query, let me know for further assistance.
