Over the last year i have been getting a heavy thump in my heart which causes me to suddenly suck in. It seems to start suddenly when sitting quietly during the day or at night which wakes me from a shallow sleep. Some days its regularly about 15 mins or so apart.As soon as this happens i have an onset of a short term head ache which as the day progresses turns into a semi permanent one.

The scary and annoying part of this is now iam getting memory loss like names of things and procedures etc. I was told by a doctor once that it was palpatations ,but i think its serious especially when it comes to my memory at 82. Panadol doesnt help the headaches at all.

I do have Paf and have dual chamber pm. Can anyone here recognise what this may be etc. Thanks all Colin. At least i can still remember my name LOL
