Hello, Jeries, if you had a symptom of palpitations and left hand symptoms and difficulty breathing it could be a number of things; and that you had dizziness could mean an irregular heart beat. You should goto an emergency room now since you fainted (you wrote "balck out", which I assume you mean you "blacked out") -- please goto an ER now to be evaluated.
