Hi! My Name Is Emily, I Am 14 Years Old,

Hi!

My name is Emily, I am 14 years old, and I live in NC. About 6 months ago I started having times where it would be really hard for me to breathe and my heart would start racing and then just suddenly slow down. I am really worried about it and I don't know what it is. It happens when I am just laying in bed, at school, or talking to my friends. Before I confront my pediatrician I just wanted to ask you to see if you had an idea of what it might be. Thanks so much!!

Emily
