What Causes Breathlessness, Dizziness And Irregular Heartbeats?
I sometimes have SOB, dizziness, numbness and fast heart palpitations. I feel that when I don t get enough oxygen it causes me to get dizzy. It s not for a long period of time but I m starting to worry. I would like to make an appointment but not sure what specialist to go see.

Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
I would like to tell you that palpitation associated with dizziness and breathless can be because of rhythm disorder and needs to be evaluated further for proper management because some of arrythmias can be fatal.
Kindly get an ECG and Echocardiography done and consult with a Cardiologist.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Navneet Bansal
