Last year I had four scares with a sudden onset of a racing heart combined with light-headedness, cold sweat and sudden chills. Three in my home country and one during a business trip to Xiangyang.
In the first three instances, I called the nearest hospital and admitted myself to the emergency department where the doctors did blood tests, MRI scans and X-rays. And the answer was always "We don't see anything wrong with you!"
Finally on the fourth scare the doctor asked if I consume tea, coffee, energy drinks or colas. When I responded positively, he put me on a lifetime ban of these drinks on suspicions that I am having an adverse reaction to the caffeine in them.
Since I never had any more episodes for the rest of 2019 I thought that was indeed the case until I had another incident in February this year. And as expected, the doctors were unable to determine the cause since caffeine was definitely not involved this time...
I see the problem. They didn't scan the main body.
Not to mention that it's probably a spiritually related disease, so best find a witch doctor or a shrine maiden.
All right, let's take the CT now.We'll be right over, so you just rest, please!

Whew...And so, having gone by ambulance to the hospital...Seems to have calmed down somehow...My heart's still racing, though...So that's what happened. Was it right to call an ambulance in a case like this?Yes, sir.Yep, no idea!
