Heart palpitations causing discomfort and breathlessness along with fatigue can be due to various reasons. It could be related to underlying heart conditions such as arrhythmias, heart valve disorders, or heart failure. Other possible causes include thyroid disorders, anxiety or panic attacks, anemia, or even certain medications. To address the symptoms, it is important to first identify the underlying cause. I recommend you consult a healthcare professional for a thorough evaluation.
