Had Difficulty Breathing In Windy Conditions, Had Episodes Of Irregular Heart Beat. What Could Be A Possible Reason?
Hi doctor,
Just wondering, since I was young, I've had difficulty breathing in windy conditions, like in the backseat of a car when the front window is rolled down. Now, I'm married and my husband and I went out on his bike, and the same thing happened. The rush of air was incredibly hard for me to breath. I felt I would pass out, so I asked him to go slower. This also happens to me on fast rides, like a roller coaster and I've never really enjoyed those rides. I don't think it is because I am nervous, but it's the wind rushing at me when I'm on those rides. What could be a possible reason? Oh, I am 30, female, 5'1, 109 pounds. I've had episodes of irregular heart beat but it was usually linked to some medication.

Hello,
You need to get done a Electrocardiogram to rule out any heart problems
In addition the difficulty in respiration could be because of wind or the due to nervousness.
Mostly due to nervousness....for that you can make yourself strong by going for walk daily in morning and evening so that the body secretes adrenaline daily so if their is nervousness or any activity then the body does not react to sudden release of adrenaline and you have weird symptoms.
